Shame _________

  • A.has no relation to cognition.
  • B.can have negative impact on cognition.
  • C.is very effective to motivate the children to learn.
  • D.should be generated frequently in teaching-learning process.

Answer: B

Shame can have negative impact on cognition.

Emotions and thinking are closely linked. A child who is made to feel ashamed experiences anxiety and lowered self-worth, which disrupt attention, memory and the willingness to try, ask questions or risk mistakes.

So the claim that shame has no relation to cognition is wrong. It is not an effective motivator: it leads to withdrawal and avoidance rather than learning. And it should never be generated deliberately in the classroom, let alone frequently; a supportive, fear-free climate is what learning needs.
