BBoth A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A ✓ Correct
CA is correct but R is not correct
DA is not correct but R is correct
Correct answer: (B) Both A and R are correct but R is not the correct explanation of A
Explanation

Both the assertion and the reason are true statements, but the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.

The assertion, that learning is a lifelong process, states that learning continues throughout a person's life.

The reason, that learning must be linked with lifelong processes to be useful, states a condition for usefulness.

The assertion describes the nature of learning, while the reason prescribes how to make it useful.

A descriptive claim about duration is not explained by a prescriptive claim about utility, so R cannot explain A.

The idea of lifelong learning was strongly advanced by the Faure report Learning to Be and later by the Delors report.
