    Question

    Read the following statements and choose the correct option:
    Assertion A: Teacher should ask students to identify their own examples and non-examples of the concept for strengthening the concept.
    Reason R: Thinking of examples leads to strengthening of the concept while non-examples tend to confuse the students.

    A.

    Both A and R are false.

    B.

    Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

    C.

    Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

    D.

    A is true, but R is false.

    Correct option is D

    Assertion A is true. Asking students to identify their own examples and non-examples of a concept is a powerful educational technique. It encourages active learning and helps students to understand the boundaries of the concept, leading to a deeper and more comprehensive understanding. This practice engages students in higher-order thinking and helps them to internalize the concept more effectively.
    However, Reason R is false. Thinking of non-examples does not necessarily confuse students. Instead, it can be a valuable part of learning as it helps students to distinguish what the concept is not, clarifying its boundaries and reinforcing their understanding. By analyzing non-examples, students can develop a more nuanced understanding of the concept and avoid misconceptions. Thus, while A is true, R is false, making option (d) the correct answer.
