End of Quiz 

Please submit answers for evaluation.

It was mind blowing to see the result. 

I have just simplified this quiz by removing extra * on many places, maybe it's using for bold letters. 

As I had heard that anything done by AI for educational purposes must be checked for verification, I did the same, while making the editing for its simplification. No extra time was required. 

It was found that, the answer to the Fourth question, was wrong. It should be 'Equity' instead of 'Esprit de Corps'. 

I just copied this question, removed * and posted/pasted again for answer. 

Now, GROK not only gave me the right answer but satisfied me with the explanation for choosing the correct option, like this:

Me: 

4. “Employees should be treated kindly, and justice should be administered” relates to which principle?  

   a) Equity  

   b) Esprit de Corps  

   c) Remuneration  

   d) Discipline


GROK:

The correct answer is:  

a) Equity


Explanation (Simple & CBSE-Friendly):  

Henry Fayol said in his *Equity* principle:  

> “Employees should be treated with *kindness and justice*. There should be no discrimination based on gender, caste, or religion.”


It means fair treatment + friendly behavior = happy workers.  

*(Not Esprit de Corps – that’s team spirit; not Remuneration – that’s salary; not Discipline – that’s following rules.) *


Me: Thanks! It was wonderful working here.

GROK:

After this, I stopped, as I have read this also that saying "Thankyou", "Please" and "Sorry" costs the AI companies a thousand of Dollars.


The most important thing to note down now is, that this free workshop on AI Tools was conducted by Be10X.

I got this chance by scratching a coupon on purchasing some confectionary items from Blinkit. I seldom scratch such coupons thinking these to be impractical things.

Now, I think I have found another example for students, of How is Goodwill Generated?

Here, both the companies have found an advertising medium free of cost - Me by publishing this article.

Note: Whenever you use such quizzes online, Don't forget to attribute to GROK, Afterall it has done a lot of work for you and saved a lot of time, giving you the satisfaction and time to enjoy.
