The presenter gave some real life situations which can probably occur in the life of a teacher. Then the pupil teachers were asked how they would respond in those situations. The questions asked are attached below:

• As part of the school curriculum the students were asked to write a script of a story. After all the students submitted the work you went through all the scripts and found out that one of the students have written an amazing and creative script. As a teacher, how would you motivate the student in realising his talent?

• Suppose that one of your students’ geometry box is missing. He came to you and explains the situation and blames one of his friends. How will you handle the situation?

• While experimenting in the science laboratory accidentally acid fell into one of your students' hand. How will you handle the situation?
