UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and D are correct because lectures are efficient for information delivery, can be enriched through questions and examples and may reduce engagement if used without interaction. C is false since lecture can support many outcomes when combined with other strategies. E is false because lectures are often integrated with discussions, demonstrations or group work. Thus, A, B and D only is the correct set of statements.

Option A:
Option A includes A and B but omits D, failing to acknowledge the risk of reduced engagement when lecture is purely one-way. Since D is also true, A and B only is incomplete.

Option B:
Option B groups A, B and D, recognising both the strengths and limitations of lecture and the value of interaction. It appropriately excludes C and E, which exaggerate unsuitability or separateness, so A, B and D only is correct.

Option C:
Option C lists B, D and E but includes E, which falsely claims lecture cannot be combined with other methods. This invalidates B, D and E only as an option.

Option D:
Option D contains A, C and D, but C is incorrect because lecture can be suitable for some objectives. Including C makes A, C and D only unacceptable.
