  2. Method of Delivering Effective Learning

The correct answer is: Measure of Developing English Language

The MODEL assessment stands for "Measure of Developing English Language." This assessment is designed to evaluate the English language proficiency of students who are in the process of acquiring English as a second language. It focuses on various aspects of language development, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. The goal is to gain an understanding of a student's current language abilities and to inform instruction that meets their needs as they progress in their language acquisition. The term "measure" emphasizes the assessment's role in quantifying language proficiency, while "developing" highlights that it is specifically aimed at learners who are still improving their English skills.
