A clinical faculty member stresses "see one–do one–teach one" as a teaching methodology. When asked about this technique, the instructor explains that
a. doing all three things covers several learning styles.
b. it gives the students a feeling of mastery of the topic.
c. people retain a high percentage of what they teach.
d. teaching others helps develop leadership in students.
C
According to Dale (1969), people will retain about 95% of what they teach.
Multiple learning styles do come into play with this methodology, but this is not the best answer.
Giving students a "feeling" of mastery is not the focus of teaching; the goal is actual mastery of the subject.
Promoting leadership is a good goal, but it is not the reason for this educational technique.
