UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and D are correct, while C and E are incorrect. A is true because formative feedback should highlight concrete strengths and areas for growth. B is true as different modes can be used to deliver such feedback. D is true since encouraging questions helps learners interpret and use feedback effectively. C is false because formative assessment must occur during learning, not only after final exams, and E is false because qualitative comments are central to formative communication, not just marks. Therefore, A, B and D only is the correct combination.

Option A:
Option A assembles A, B and D, integrating specificity, multiple modes and learner questioning, while excluding C and E, which delay or reduce feedback to marks. Since all included statements are accurate, A, B and D only is the correct answer.

Option B:
Option B groups A and B but omits D, ignoring the importance of student engagement with feedback through questioning. Without D, A and B only does not fully capture the interactive nature of formative communication.

Option C:
Option C offers B, D and E, but E incorrectly limits formative communication to grades, ignoring descriptive feedback. Inclusion of E makes B, D and E only invalid.

Option D:
Option D presents A, C and D, yet C contradicts the ongoing nature of formative assessment. Thus A, C and D only cannot be accepted.
