In order to modify the undesirable behaviour of a student, the most effective method is

ATo punish the student

BTo bring it to the notice of parents

CTo find out the reasons for the undesirable behaviour and provide remedies ✓ Correct

DAll of the above

Correct answer: (C) To find out the reasons for the undesirable behaviour and provide remedies

Explanation

The most effective way to modify undesirable behaviour is to find its causes and provide remedies.

Behaviour is a symptom; lasting change comes from treating the underlying cause.

Punishing the student suppresses behaviour briefly but leaves the cause untouched.

Merely informing the parents shifts the issue without a diagnostic remedy.

Choosing all of the above wrongly equates punitive steps with a corrective, cause-based approach.

This diagnostic-remedial stance reflects a guidance-oriented view of discipline.
