Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDF- Assertion A is true. The term "quality control" is not typically used in educational institutions.
- This is because education is a service, and it is difficult to measure the quality of a service in the same way that you can measure the quality of a manufactured product.
Reason R: Since 'Quality control' is associated with manufactured products, whereas in educational institutions, the human resources are assured for quality.
- Reason R is also true. The term "quality control" is typically associated with manufactured products, where the quality of the product can be measured by its conformance to specifications. In education, however, the quality of the product (the student) is not as easily measured.
However, R is the correct explanation of A. The fact that education is a service and that the quality of the product (the student) is not as easily measured means that the term "quality control" is not typically used in educational institutions.
Therefore, the correct answer is 1) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
