Teacher communication modes – UGC NET Question

Statements A, B and F accurately describe communication in teaching. A is true because verbal communication comprises spoken and written language. B is true since non-verbal cues often reinforce or clarify verbal messages. F is true as consistency between what is said and how it is expressed avoids confusion. C is false because tone and pace have paralinguistic, partly non-verbal aspects, D is false because students’ non-verbal signals provide important feedback, and E is false since digital tools can support rich communication; therefore A, B and F only is correct.

Option A:
Option A acknowledges A and B but omits F, failing to stress the importance of congruence between message and manner. As F is also true, A and B only is incomplete.

Option B:
Option B brings together A, B and F, covering verbal forms, supporting non-verbal cues and the need for consistency, while excluding C, D and E, which underrate non-verbal and digital channels. Hence A, B and F only is the correct option.

Option C:
Option C includes C, which incorrectly denies the non-verbal aspects of tone and pace, so B, C and F only cannot be accepted.

Option D:
Option D would include E, which wrongly rejects digital platforms, and any such mixture with A or B would not match the full set of correct statements.
