Educational podcasts – UGC NET Question

Statement C is the only wrong statement because podcasts are frequently used to supplement lectures, revisit content and offer additional explanations. Statements A, B and D correctly describe what podcasts are, their flexible use and how subscription feeds work. Educational podcasts are well suited for revision and learning on the move. Thus, the option that selects only C as wrong is correct.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because it groups A and C as wrong statements. A is a standard description of podcasts as downloadable or streamable audio programmes, so treating it as wrong contradicts basic ICT awareness.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it lists C and D as wrong statements, even though D is true. Subscribing to podcast feeds is a common way to receive new episodes automatically. Combining a true statement with the false one makes this option invalid.

Option C:
Option C is correct because it isolates C as the sole incorrect statement and recognises that A, B and D reflect how podcasts are used in education. It acknowledges the supplementary and revision roles that podcasts can play in blended learning.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it treats A, C and D as wrong. Both A and D are accurate descriptions of podcasting technology, so including them in the wrong set misrepresents ICT tools.
