Data analytics dashboards in education – UGC NET Question

Statement B is the only wrong statement because dashboards do not replace the teacher’s responsibility to interpret data thoughtfully. A, C and D recognise that dashboards visualise indicators, enable filtering and still require careful reading to avoid misinterpretation. Teachers must combine dashboard information with contextual knowledge before acting. Therefore, the combination that selects only B as wrong is correct.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because it groups A and B as wrong statements. A is true, since visualising attendance and performance is a primary function of educational dashboards. Including A among wrong statements misrepresents their purpose.

Option B:
Option B is correct because it isolates B, which wrongly implies that interpretation is no longer needed, and implicitly accepts A, C and D as accurate. It highlights that data tools supplement but do not replace professional judgement.

Option C:
Option C is incorrect because it lists B and C as wrong. C is true, as many dashboards support filtering by different variables to reveal trends, so treating it as wrong contradicts common features of analytics tools.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it groups B and D as wrong statements. While B is wrong, D correctly warns that misreading dashboards can lead to poor decisions, so this combination misclassifies a valid caution as incorrect.
