Option 1 : Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A

The University Grants Commission has developed the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) program. 

Assertion A: Choice-based Credit System (CBCS) is adopted out of the need for flexibility in the education system so that students, depending on their interests and aims, can choose interdisciplinary, intra-disciplinary, and skill-based courses.

  • Higher education institutes (HEIs) must have the flexibility and independence to establish examination and assessment procedures that are most suited to the curriculum, syllabi, and teaching-learning methods. 
  • To overcome these issues UGC developed the CBSC. 
  • CBSC provides an opportunity to student can select from a variety of inter/multidisciplinary courses depending upon their interests and aims. 
  • The student has the opportunity to achieve certification through certification courses and students have more options when it comes to course selection.
Thus,  Assertion A  is correct. 
Reason R: The majority of Indian higher education institutions have been following a marks or percentage-based evaluation system, which obstructs the flexibility for the students to study the subjects/courses of their choice and their mobility to different institutions.
  • The higher education system is so diverse, that colleges take a variety of approaches to testing, evaluation, and grading systems. 
  • The student performance is reported using the traditional system of marks earned in examinations, grades, or both.
  • This makes it difficult for universities and businesses to comprehend and infer the performance of students graduating from various universities and colleges based on grades.

So, R is correct and R is the correct explanation of A.

Therefore, Both A and R are correct and R is the correct explanation of A.
