Branching programme of programmed learning is more useful in..............................
Answer: C
The University's key gives concept comparison. What could and could not be confirmed: no account of Crowder's branching programme was found that ties it to concept comparison rather than concept formation, so the keyed option rests on the key.
A branching (intrinsic) programme, associated with Norman Crowder, presents a larger block of material followed by a multiple-choice question, and sends the learner to a different frame according to the answer chosen: forward on a right answer, to remedial material on a wrong one. Because the learner's choice among alternatives reveals a particular misunderstanding, the design suits content in which alternatives have to be compared and told apart, which is the reading under which the key's 'concept comparison' fits. A linear programme in small steps, as Skinner designed it, suits plain knowledge of facts.
The choice among comparison, formation and the other options is the key's, not one a source settles.
