Research indicates that teachers treat students for whom they have high expectations differently than those for whom they have low expectations. In which of the following areas do these differences exist?

1 . Questioning: Teachers tend to call on perceived low achievers more often, because lower achievers are less likely to volunteer responses on their own. 2 . Teacher effort: Teachers give perceived high achievers more thorough explanations, their instruction is more enthusiastic, and they require more complete and accurate student answers than they do from perceived low achievers. 3 . Feedback: Teachers praise perceived high achievers more and criticize them less. They also offer perceived high achievers more complete and lengthier feedback. 4 . Emotional support: Teachers interact more with perceived high achievers, make more eye contact, stand closer, and orient their bodies more directly toward these students, because low achievers are less confident than are their higher achieving peers. a. 1, 2, 3, 4 b. 1, 3 c. 2, 4 d. 1
