UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 recommends teacher appraisal systems that combine multiple evidence sources and are used primarily to support professional growth and career progression.

Option A:
This option is incorrect because purely punitive, salary-cut-focused appraisal systems are discouraged as they demotivate teachers and do not promote improvement.

Option B:
This option is correct; it reflects NEP’s view that self-evaluation, peer review, student feedback and academic performance should be blended for constructive feedback and development.

Option C:
This option is wrong because having no appraisal at all would undermine accountability and make it hard to identify support needs.

Option D:
This option is incorrect because tying appraisal only to competitive exam rankings would narrow teaching to test coaching rather than holistic learning.
