Question

Look at the following topic sentence:

“If students are allowed to design their own courses of study, they will be more engaged in the learning process and, therefore, more likely to succeed.”
Which of the following personal details would best support this topic sentence?

A) I don’t enjoy reading, so I would develop a course of study that did not involve any books.
B) When my science teacher allowed me to choose my own project, I got a better grade than I have ever gotten before in science class.
C) Sometimes I get bored in class.
D) I learn more from watching online videos than I do from reading news articles, because they are more interesting.

Answer 1

I believe that the answer is actually the last one, B

B) When my science teacher allowed me to choose my own project, I got a better grade than I have ever gotten before in science class.

This is because the sentence says, “If students are allowed to design their own courses of study, they will be more engaged in the learning process and, therefore, more likely to succeed.” and it's basically saying that the students need to have a study course that they are actually interested in, only then would they actually learn something out of the lessons.

I know this is like, 3 years late, but if someone else needs an answer for this, I hope it helps. ^-^
