This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2019 Home Science Question Paper (04-Dec-2019) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

Learning from the teacher

The conventional (formal, traditional) education system in India is built around the classroom and the physical presence of a teacher who directly instructs learners face to face. The teacher-taught relationship, with the teacher guiding, explaining and assessing, is the defining and indispensable feature that separates conventional education from non-conventional modes such as distance or open learning.

Therefore learning from the teacher is the necessary component.

Learning from books, learning through instructional material and learning from thinking are certainly valuable, but they also characterise non-conventional and self-study modes and can occur without a formal teacher; they are not what specifically defines the conventional system. The direct role of the teacher is what makes the system conventional.

Correct answer: Learning from the teacher
