Discussion
Given below are two statements, one marked as Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R). Read the statements and choose the correct option.
Assertion (A) : Effective teaching involves presenting information to students in an organized manner and provide opportunities for discussion.
Reason (R) : Learning is primarily a process of memorization and reproduction of information.
Answer: C
(A) is true, but (R) false.
The Assertion describes good teaching: information presented in an organised way, so that learners can connect it to what they know, together with opportunities for discussion, in which learners test and refine their understanding.
The Reason is false. Learning is not primarily memorisation and reproduction of information; on the constructivist view the paper takes throughout, learning is an active process of making meaning and building understanding. Since (R) is false, it cannot explain (A), and the options calling both true, or both false, are ruled out.
