Which activity does NOT support the development of reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills?

  1. Project-based learning activities

  2. Multiple-choice quizzes

  3. Performance assessments

  4. Collaborative discussions

The correct answer is: Multiple-choice quizzes

Multiple-choice quizzes, as indicated in the question, do not support the development of reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills as effectively as the other activities listed. Multiple-choice quizzes primarily test recall and recognition rather than higher-order thinking skills or the application of language skills. In contrast, project-based learning activities, performance assessments, and collaborative discussions actively engage students in applying and practicing their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills in authentic situations, which are more aligned with skill development in these areas.
