UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and D are correct because good feedback is task-focused and timely, should avoid being purely negative and must create opportunities for students to act on it. C is false since waiting until the end of the course removes the possibility of improvement during learning. E is false because learners at all achievement levels benefit from feedback to refine understanding and performance. Therefore, A, B and D only is the correct combination.

Option A:
Option A includes A and B but omits D, ignoring the importance of allowing learners to use feedback in subsequent tasks. Since D is also true, A and B only is incomplete.

Option B:
Option B adds C to A and B, but C incorrectly insists on delaying feedback until the course ends, which contradicts formative assessment principles. Hence A, B and C only cannot be accepted.

Option C:
Option C correctly groups A, B and D, emphasising quality, motivational aspects and opportunities for use of feedback while excluding C and E, which undermine its formative value. Thus A, B and D only is the right answer.

Option D:
Option D combines B, C and D but retains C, the false statement about always delaying feedback, making B, C and D only invalid.
