Correct answer: A

The assertion is true: depending on the classroom situation, some communication media can be more effective than others. For example, a diagram, demonstration, video, board explanation, or oral explanation may be suitable for different kinds of messages. The reason is also true because the choice of medium depends directly on the nature of the message and the learners. Hence, (R) correctly explains (A), so option 1 is correct.
