Assertion (A) : Learning is facilitated when a new behaviour contributes to satisfy felt needs on the point of learners.
Reason (R) : Learning is facilitated when two or more sanses are used at a time by the learners.
Code :

The correct answer is
Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is not the correct explanation for it.

To determine the correct answer, we must analyze both the Assertion (A) and the Reason (R) separately and in conjunction with each other.

  1. Assertion (A): "Learning is facilitated when a new behaviour contributes to satisfy felt needs on the point of learners."
    • Analysis: This statement is generally true. When students perceive that a learning activity or new behavior fulfills a personal need or aligns with their individual interests and goals, they are more likely to engage and learn effectively. This principle aligns with various educational theories, including those related to motivation and self-regulation in learning.
  2. Reason (R): "Learning is facilitated when two or more senses are used at a time by the learners."
    • Analysis: This statement is also correct. Multisensory learning, or engaging more than one sense simultaneously, has been shown to enhance learning and retention. When learners use visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modes of learning together, it often leads to a more integrated and enduring understanding of the material.
  3. Comparing A and R:
    • While both (A) and (R) are correct individually, Reason (R) does not directly explain Assertion (A). The Assertion focuses on the satisfaction of personal needs through new behaviors, while the Reason pertains to the cognitive benefits of using multiple senses.

Conclusion: Both the Assertion and the Reason are correct statements, but Reason (R) does not directly explain why Assertion (A) is true. Therefore, the correct answer is: Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is not the correct explanation for it.
