Communication competence adaptation – UGC NET Question

Communication competence is the ability to use language and non verbal behaviour effectively and appropriately in different contexts. Adapting examples and pace to suit diverse learner groups demonstrates this flexibility. The teacher is sensitive to audience needs,which is a hallmark of competence.

Option A:
Competent communicators monitor feedback and modify their messages accordingly,just as the teacher does in the stem. This supports learning and engagement.

Option B:
Authority refers to formal power,status or control,not necessarily skillful adaptation.

Option C:
Censorship involves suppression of information and is unrelated to audience centred adjustments.

Option D:
Dependence is about reliance on others rather than skilled communication.
