UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B, C, D and F are all correct descriptions of facilitative and authoritarian roles. A is true because facilitators support learners in constructing knowledge. B is true since authoritarian teachers keep control and make decisions alone. C is true as collaborative discussion is typical of facilitative classrooms. D is true because authoritarian teaching tends to restrict participation, and F is true because facilitative teachers use learner feedback to adjust instruction. E is false because facilitators still provide structure and guidance, so A, B, C, D and F only is the correct combination.

Option A:
Option A includes A, B, C and D but omits F, neglecting the important element that facilitators respond to learner feedback. Without F, the picture of facilitative teaching is incomplete, so this option cannot be considered fully correct.

Option B:
Option B adds E to A, B, C and D, yet E wrongly claims that facilitators never provide structure. Facilitators do guide learning through scaffolding, so including E makes A, B, C, D and E only an invalid combination.

Option C:
Option C brings together A, B, C, D and F, correctly describing learner construction, teacher control, collaboration, restricted participation in authoritarian contexts and responsiveness to feedback. Because it excludes only the false statement E, this option is the correct one.

Option D:
Option D groups B, C, D and F but leaves out A, thereby omitting the central idea that facilitators encourage learners to construct their own understanding. Although it includes several true statements, the absence of A means B, C, D and F only is incomplete.
