Assistive technologies in ICT – UGC NET Question

Statements A, B, C, E and F describe key assistive technologies and inclusive features, while D conflicts with proactive design. Screen readers, speech recognition and captions address specific impairments, and customisable visual settings and built-in tools help many learners. Considering accessibility only after a request can leave barriers in place and slow down support. Thus the correct set is A, B, C, E and F.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because it omits F, thereby underestimating the value of built-in accessibility features for a broad user base. A, B, C and E are true but do not reflect the universal design perspective captured by F.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it omits A and adds nothing about screen readers. B, C, E and F are true, yet excluding A leaves out one of the most central assistive tools for blind learners.

Option C:
Option C is correct because it assembles statements about multiple assistive tools and emphasises that accessibility benefits many learners. It explicitly rejects D’s reactive approach by not including it.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it omits B and therefore fails to mention speech recognition. A, C, E and F are true, but leaving out B means the set is incomplete.
