Given below are two statements – one is labelled as Assertion A and the other is labelled as Reason R.
Assertion A: Use of slang in formal teaching makes communication lively and interesting
Reasons R: Academic decency demands the avoidance of slang in the classroom environment.
In the light of the above stated two statements, choose the correct option from the choices given below:
A is false, but R is true
This is an Assertion-Reason item about verbal communication in teaching.
Assertion: 'Use of slang in formal teaching makes communication lively and interesting.' In a formal academic setting, slang is imprecise, informal and often culturally restricted; it lowers clarity and academic register rather than genuinely improving formal teaching. So the Assertion is false.
Reason: 'Academic decency demands the avoidance of slang in the classroom environment.' Standard norms of academic communication do require formal, precise language and the avoidance of slang, so this statement is true.
Therefore the Assertion is false while the Reason is true. The options claiming both are true are ruled out, and so is the option saying the Assertion is true but the Reason false. The correct combination is that the Assertion is false but the Reason is true.
Correct answer: A is false, but R is true
