Q: The steps followed in process of transfer of information by a person to another person are in the following sequential order :I. Idealism II. TransmissionIII. Encoding IV. DecodingV. Receiving VI. ActionCodes :

The steps in the transfer of information are ideation, encoding, transmission, receiving, decoding and action, I, III, II, V, IV, VI.The sender forms the idea (printed 'Idealism'), encodes it into words or symbols, and transmits it. The receiver gets the message, decodes it and acts on it. Decoding cannot come before receiving, so the codes that place IV earlier in the line are wrong. In the communication process the message passes from the sender to the receiver, so the sender's stages (ideation, encoding, transmission) come before the receiver's stages (receiving, decoding and action).

Q: _______ is a systematic arrangement and display of visual materials under a roof to create awareness and arouse interest in the minds of the learners about an idea.

The term is exhibition.An exhibition is a planned arrangement and display of visual materials in a room or hall, so that visitors learn about an idea and become interested in it.A demonstration shows how something is done, a black board is a writing surface used by the teacher, and a poster is a single display sheet. None of these is an arrangement of many materials under a roof.Exhibitions are used in extension work for the same reason, since people see the materials and ask questions on the spot.

Q: Three dimensional aids used for class room teaching are :I. SpecimenII. FlashcardsIII. ModelsIV. SlidesCodes :

The three dimensional aids are specimens and models (I and III).A specimen is the real object, and a model is a solid copy of it, so both have height, width and depth and can be handled and viewed from all sides.Flashcards are flat cards and slides are flat transparencies, so they are two dimensional. The options that include II or IV are wrong.Three dimensional aids give a more realistic idea of size and shape, which is why they are favoured for teaching about objects such as plants, animals and machines.

Match the type of audio visual aids given in List - I with the aids given in List - II :

List - I	List - II
a. 2D	i. Field visit
b. 3D	ii. Poster
c. Projected aid	iii. Model
d. Non-projected aid	iv. Films
	v. Bulletin Board

Codes : a b c d

A.ii iii iv i
B.ii iii i iv
C.ii iii v iv
D.ii iii iv v

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

The correct matching is a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-v, the last code.

A poster is a two-dimensional aid, a model is three-dimensional, films are a projected aid and the bulletin board is a non-projected aid. A field visit is not matched to any of the four, so the codes that put it against projected or non-projected aids are wrong. The classification of aids by dimension and by projection is a standard one, so the questions of this kind are answered by placing each aid under its type: a flat picture or chart, a solid object, a film shown by a projector, and a board that is read directly.

Match the following basic functions of communication with their characteristic features :

List - I	List - II
a. Information	i. Initiation of communication by superiors
b. Instruction	ii. Adopting oneself to environment
c. Influence	iii. Changing behaviour in desirable direction
d. Integration	iv. Maintaining societal stability

Codes : a b c d

A.ii i iii iv
B.ii i iv iii
C.i ii iii iv
D.iv iii ii i

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: A

The keyed matching is a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv, the first code.

The information function is adapting oneself to the environment, instruction is the initiation of communication by superiors, influence is changing behaviour in a desirable direction and integration is maintaining societal stability. The other codes interchange the integration and influence features or reverse the whole list. The four functions are those of the same communication system, and each has a purpose: information tells, instruction directs from the top, influence changes behaviour and integration holds society together.

________ is an intense educational activity for motivating and mobilizing a community to action.

A.Brainstorming
B.Colloquium
C.Campaign
D.Symposium

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: C

A campaign is an intense educational activity that motivates and mobilises a community to action. It is organised for a limited period, uses many media and methods together, and aims at a particular goal, as in a literacy, pulse polio or sanitation campaign.

Brainstorming is a group method of producing ideas, a colloquium is a discussion among experts, and a symposium is a set of presentations on a topic. None of these mobilises a whole community to act.

Assertion (A) : Senses are the gateways to learning.

Reason (R) : Learning activities should engage a maximum number of senses by using audio-visual aids.
Codes :

A.(A) is correct, (R) is wrong.
B.(A) is correct, (R) is correct.
C.(A) is not correct, (R) is correct.
D.(A) and (R) are not correct.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

Both statements are correct, and the reason follows from the assertion. The senses are the gateways to learning, because we learn by seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and smelling. Hence learning activities should engage as many senses as possible, and audio-visual aids do this.

The codes that call the assertion or the reason not correct are wrong, because both are accepted principles in extension education and teaching.

Audio-visual aids add sight and sound to the teaching of a topic, which helps retention, since people remember more of what they see and hear together than of what they hear alone. The assertion and the reason support each other.

Assertion (A) : Newspaper is a print media. It is one of the mass media.

Reason (R) : All mass media are print media.
Codes :

A.Both (A) and (R) are true.
B.(A) is true, but (R) is false.
C.Both (A) and (R) are false.
D.(A) is false, but (R) is true.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The assertion is true and the reason is false. A newspaper is a print medium, and print media are one of the mass media, with radio, television and film as the others.

The reason is false, because not all mass media are print media. Radio and television are electronic media, and film is a visual medium. So only the assertion holds.

Radio, television, film and the internet carry sound and moving pictures, so a claim that every mass medium is a print medium is false. Newspapers, magazines and books are the print group, and that is why only the first statement stands.

Give the correct sequence of the procedure to be adopted in organising audio-visual programme :

I. Planning
II. Presentation
III. Follow-up
IV. Preparation
Codes :

A.I, II, IV, III
B.I, IV, II, III
C.IV, I, II, III
D.III, IV, II, I

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The procedure in organising an audio-visual programme is planning (I), preparation (IV), presentation (II) and follow-up (III). So the code is I, IV, II, III.

The programme is first planned, then the materials and room are prepared, it is then presented to the audience, and the follow-up comes afterwards to see its effect. The other codes put the presentation before the preparation or the follow-up before the presentation.

Planning decides the aim, audience and time, preparation makes the materials and arranges the room, the presentation delivers the programme, and the follow-up checks what the audience learned. This order cannot be changed without losing the point of each step.

Match the items given in List - I with

List - II

List - I	List - II
a. Overhead Projector	i. Slides
b. LCD Projector	ii. Films
c. Slide Projector	iii. Flannel
d. Motion Picture Projector	iv. Transparency Sheet
	v. Power Point

Codes : a b c d

A.iv v i ii
B.iii i v iv
C.ii v i iii
D.i iii iv v

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: A

An overhead projector uses a transparency sheet (iv), an LCD projector shows a power point presentation (v), a slide projector shows slides (i), and a motion picture projector shows films (ii). So the code is iv, v, i, ii.

Flannel is the material of a flannelgraph board and is not shown by any projector, and so it is not part of the correct matches. The other codes pair the projectors with the wrong material.

The overhead projector throws the image of a transparency on a screen, the LCD projector shows a computer presentation made in PowerPoint, the slide projector shows photographic slides and the motion picture projector shows films on reels.

_______ is a systematic arrangement and display of visual materials under a roof to create awareness and arouse interest in the minds of the learners about an idea.

A.Demonstrations
B.Black Board
C.Posters
D.Exhibition

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: D

The term is exhibition.

An exhibition is a planned arrangement and display of visual materials in a room or hall, so that visitors learn about an idea and become interested in it.

A demonstration shows how something is done, a black board is a writing surface used by the teacher, and a poster is a single display sheet. None of these is an arrangement of many materials under a roof.

Exhibitions are used in extension work for the same reason, since people see the materials and ask questions on the spot.

Three dimensional aids used for class room teaching are :

I. Specimen
II. Flashcards
III. Models
IV. Slides
Codes :

A.I, II and III are correct.
B.I and III are correct.
C.II and III are correct.
D.II and IV are correct.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2013,

Answer: B

The three dimensional aids are specimens and models (I and III).

A specimen is the real object, and a model is a solid copy of it, so both have height, width and depth and can be handled and viewed from all sides.

Flashcards are flat cards and slides are flat transparencies, so they are two dimensional. The options that include II or IV are wrong.

Three dimensional aids give a more realistic idea of size and shape, which is why they are favoured for teaching about objects such as plants, animals and machines.
