Directions: Read the following passage and answer the item that follows. Your answer should be based on the passage only.

Passage
Success in online education during COVID-19 pandemic cannot be announced as a reality simply because education cannot be on transmission mode, with a switch on and off button. Education must take stock of dehumanising disruption to students and families. We have to see if students' entitlements are being compromised. We must provide meaningful academic curriculum alternatives. There has to be some effort to personalise education and bring in context specific alternatives rather than just a general modus operandi and applaud it as a grand success. In digital education, teachers feel trapped and enslaved to a system that encourages coaching, not teaching. Students learn more from each other, while engaging in challenging collective tasks and thinking together. Staring at a screen, learners do not think, question, argue, discuss but only act as remote receptors of what is beamed.

Q1. Based on the above passage, the following assumptions have been made:
I. Online education dehumanises the education system.
II. Learning needs to be a collective effort.
III. Online education may be used for out of school children, but not for students in classrooms.
Which of the above assumptions are valid?

A I and II only B II and III only C I and III only D I, II and III
