METHODS OF TEACHING



Methods of teaching comprise the principles and methods used for instruction. Commonly used teaching methods may include class participation, demonstration, recitation, memorization, or combination of these. The choice of teaching method(s) to be used depends largely on the information or skill that being taught, and it may also be influenced by the aptitude and enthusiasm of the students. The latter has its corresponding principles which guide every teaching method to be more consistent and effective.

A method of teaching is been important to learn by the teacher-learner for them to have the best weapon in teaching battle.  

On this week we also discussed the inductive and deductive methods, which is also an important tool when we are now in the teaching practice. The project methods was also discussed and it said, “A project is a significant, practical unit of activity of a problematic nature, planned and carried to completion by the student in a nature manner, and involving the use of physical materials to complete the unit of experience.

DRILL LESSON

TAXONOMY OF EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES



Taxonomy of Education was reported by Vic Onod. He determined the three classifications of objectives. There are: Cognitive domain, mental skills (Knowledge); affective domain, growth in feelings or emotional areas (Attitude); and psychomotor domain, manual or physical skills (Skills). Taxonomy of Education Objectives was clearly defined as a classification scheme categorizes a wide range of learning outcomes into more manageable clusters that shares some common dimension.

Each of the domains has its corresponding key words in which it will be a big help for us to formulate an objectives that best and suited to our teaching skills in the future.
