Visual communication aids in teaching – UGC NET Question

Statements A, C, D, E and F are correct, whereas B is incorrect. Diagrams and charts indeed condense complex ideas into visual form, and decorative but irrelevant images can distract from the message. Teachers must consider students’ visual literacy, and visual supports can help different learners grasp content. In assessment communication, tables and graphs clarify patterns in marks or progress. It is false to say that visual aids should never be accompanied by verbal explanation; combining words and visuals is often most effective. Therefore the correct set is A, C, D, E and F.

Option A:
Option A is incomplete because it omits F, ignoring the role of visualisation in assessment-related communication. While A, C, D and E highlight advantages of visuals, assessment tables and graphs are also important. Hence A, C, D and E only cannot represent the full set of correct statements.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it omits E, which is a correct statement about visuals supporting different learning preferences. Since the option fails to include all correct statements, it cannot be the right answer.

Option C:
Option C is correct because it names A, C, D, E and F as the true statements and implicitly rejects B. It reflects multimedia learning principles that combine visuals with explanation and caution against irrelevant decoration. Therefore A, C, D, E and F only is the right answer.

Option D:
Option D is wrong since it omits A, a central statement about summarising complex relationships through diagrams and charts. Without acknowledging that core benefit, the description of visual communication is incomplete. Consequently C, D, E and F only cannot be selected as correct.
