Question

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R). 
• [Assertion (A):] Extension agents should aim to use a combination of different teaching methods rather than relying on a single method. 
• [Reason (R):] Using a combination of methods ensures that information is presented in various ways, leading to faster learning. 
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below. 
 

• A. Both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
• B. Both (A) and (R) are correct but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).
• C. (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.
• D. (A) is not correct but (R) is correct.

Hint:

Wilson and Gallup's research showed that when farmers are exposed to a new practice through 5 or more different extension methods, the percentage of farmers adopting that practice increases to over 95%.
Multiple exposures are key to driving adoption.
