UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

The lecture method is defined by the teacher’s continuous verbal presentation of content,usually to a relatively large audience. Learners mainly listen,take notes and occasionally ask questions. This method is efficient for covering large amounts of information in a limited time. Hence,the method described in the stem is the lecture method.

Option A:
The lecture method relies heavily on spoken explanation and limited interaction,which aligns with the phrase “extended verbal exposition” used in the question. Because it is typically used with large groups,this option correctly completes the stem.

Option B:
Project method involves learners in planning and executing real-life tasks over time,with the teacher as a guide,which is quite different from continuous teacher talk.

Option C:
Laboratory method emphasises hands-on experiments and practical work,especially in science subjects,and does not rely primarily on extended verbal exposition.

Option D:
Peer tutoring focuses on students teaching other students in small groups or pairs,which is almost the opposite of one teacher addressing a large group.
