  1. Innovative Methods of Teaching We think of the effective teachers we have had over the years with a sense of recognition, but those who have touched our humanity we remember with a deep sense of gratitude. www.schoolofeducators.com

  2. ABSTRACT/PURPOSE • Evaluate traditional methods of teaching as well as multimedia teaching methods • Teaching must include two major components sending and receiving information • Any communication methods that serve this purpose without destroying the objective could be considered as innovative methods of teaching. • Benefits of innovative methods Improve Learning process Strengthen governance www.schoolofeducators.com

  3. ANALYSIS OF TRADITIONAL METHOD OF TEACHING • Pre-technology education context, the teacher is the sender or the source. • The educational material is the information or message. • The student is the receiver of the information. • The delivery medium chalk-and- talk” method overhead projector (OHP) transparencies. • In such a lecture students assume a purely passive role and their concentration fades off after 15-20 minutes. www.schoolofeducators.com

  4. LIMITATIONS • Teaching in classroom using chalk and talk is “one way flow” of information • Teachers often continuously talk for an hour without knowing students response and feedback. • The material presented is only based on lecturer notes and textbooks. • There is insufficient interaction with students in classroom. • More emphasis has been given on theory without any practical and real life time situations. • Learning from memorization but not understanding. www.schoolofeducators.com

  10. Z TO A APPROACH This approach attempts to explain the application part of a particular concept first. Strengths • Makes a particular concept clear • Students develop interest to know exactly the concept. • Creates long lasting memory/correlation of a concept. Weaknesses • Take quite long time for a teacher to introduce a concept • Initial difficulty in understanding a particular concept will be encountered. www.schoolofeducators.com

  16. TEACHER THE GREATEST INNOVATOR Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. To teach is to learn twice Teachers should guide without dictating, and participate without dominating The critical factor is not class size but rather the nature of the teaching as it affects learning.
