UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and D correctly express the purposes and components of e-portfolios, while C is overly restrictive and false. E-portfolios collect diverse digital artefacts, encourage reflection and allow teachers to see growth over time. They may be shared selectively with peers, mentors or employers when appropriate. Hence, the combination A, B and D only is correct.

Option A:
Option A is incomplete because it includes only A and B and omits D. While defining e-portfolios and listing their contents is important, highlighting their role in process and product assessment adds a crucial evaluative dimension.

Option B:
Option B is incomplete because it groups B and D only and leaves out A. Without the general definition of portfolios as collections of artefacts, understanding their nature remains partial.

Option C:
Option C is correct because it brings together the three true statements and excludes C, which incorrectly insists on permanent privacy and forbids legitimate sharing. It reflects how e-portfolios serve learning, assessment and sometimes employability.

Option D:
Option D is incorrect because it treats all four statements as correct and therefore accepts C. Since C contradicts common practice of sharing curated portfolios, especially in professional programmes, this combination cannot be accepted.
