Which of the following psychological statements is most authentic and scientifically valid regarding the true psychological implications and classroom implementation of the 'Diagnostic-Remedial Teaching Cycle'—a central concept of the Mastery Learning Model popularized by Benjamin Bloom—which involves identifying student learning gaps through formative assessments and providing corrective strategies to help every student achieve mastery?

Detailed Explanation

Core Concept: Mastery Learning and Diagnostic-Remedial Teaching

The Mastery Learning Model, championed by Benjamin Bloom, fundamentally posits that almost all students can learn academic content to a high level of mastery if they are provided with sufficient time and appropriate instructional support.

  • Rejection of Fixed Ability: It challenges the traditional normal curve approach, arguing that learning failures are due to inadequate instruction and time constraints rather than innate lack of ability.
  • Role of Diagnosis: Formative assessments are used to diagnose specific learning gaps early.
  • Corrective Strategies: Tailored remedial instruction and extra time ensure that individual differences are accommodated, allowing learners to achieve 80% to 90% mastery.

Therefore, option (b) correctly reflects the core psychological premise of mastery learning.
