Answer to Question 1

B
Individuals with a limited literacy may have a limited vocabulary and general knowledge and do not ask for clarification. They may focus on details and deal in literal or concrete concepts versus abstract concepts. They may select responses on a survey without necessarily understanding them and may be unable to understand math. They may have a low motivation to engage in learning or may drop subtle clues that they cannot read by stating they will look at information later or take it home.

Answer to Question 2

B
Instructional objectives need to be evaluated before a teaching program is designed.
