UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and C are correct, whereas D is incorrect. A is true because storytelling engages emotions and imagination, making values more meaningful. B is true since students learn values not only from what teachers say but also from how they behave. C is true as reflection and discussion give learners a chance to examine and internalise communicated values. D is false because values need not be communicated only through formal lectures; a variety of communicative approaches can be effective.

Option A:
Option A is incorrect because it combines A and B but excludes C. Without C, the option fails to recognise the importance of reflection and discussion in helping students internalise values. Hence A and B only does not present the full set of correct statements.

Option B:
Option B is incorrect because it groups B and C while omitting A. Excluding A ignores the pedagogical power of storytelling as a medium for value education. Therefore B and C only is incomplete.

Option C:
Option C is correct because it brings together A, B and C, highlighting storytelling, teacher modelling and reflective dialogue as complementary means of communicating values. It also implicitly rejects D, which overemphasises formal lectures. As it includes all and only the true statements, this option is the correct answer.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it treats A, B, C and D as correct, including D’s claim that values can be effectively communicated only through formal lectures. This narrow view conflicts with the broader set of effective strategies identified in A, B and C. Consequently, the option mixes one false statement with three true ones and cannot be accepted.
