UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

One way communication occurs when information flows only from sender to receiver,with little or no feedback. In a lecture where students are not encouraged to respond,the teacher alone speaks and students only listen. This fits the definition of one way communication. Therefore,the stem describes one way communication.

Option A:
One way communication is efficient for delivering large chunks of information but makes it hard to check understanding. Since the lecture in the stem lacks questions or feedback,it clearly falls into this category.

Option B:
Two way communication requires active responses and feedback from receivers,which is missing in the situation described.

Option C:
Mass communication involves large audiences through mass media; a classroom lecture is usually limited to a specific group of students.

Option D:
Transactional models see participants as simultaneous senders and receivers,which is not the case in a one directional lecture without interaction.
