Correct answer: A
Assertion A is true because a teacher’s work is not limited to content delivery; it includes pedagogy and meaningful social interaction with learners. Reason R is also true because both pedagogy and social interaction depend on communication. Classroom explanation, questioning, feedback, discussion and relationship-building all happen through communication. Therefore, R correctly explains A. Hence, both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
