UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

Statements A, B and D are correct, whereas C and E are incorrect. A is true because individual conferences permit targeted guidance. B is true as group tasks encourage learners to construct knowledge together. D is true since group discussions require turn-taking and negotiation of meaning. C is false because group work has distinct benefits and cannot simply be dismissed, and E is false because one-to-one communication often deals with sensitive matters that demand trust. Hence, A, B and D only is the correct combination.

Option A:
Option A gathers A, B and D, integrating personalised feedback, collaborative learning and skill development, while excluding C and E, which reflect extreme and inaccurate claims. Since all included statements are correct, this option is the right answer.

Option B:
Option B combines A and B but omits D, ignoring the role of group discussions in developing social and communication skills. Without D, A and B only offers an incomplete view of group communication benefits.

Option C:
Option C presents B, D and E, but E wrongly asserts that confidentiality and trust are irrelevant in one-to-one exchanges. Including E makes B, D and E only an invalid set of correct statements.

Option D:
Option D groups A, C and D, yet C is incorrect because dismissing group work contradicts collaborative learning principles. Therefore, A, C and D only cannot be accepted.
