Criteria for Method Selection Objectives to be Purchase Subject to be taught Instructional Equipment, Tools and Materials The Students Abilities The Students Interests Previous Learning or Experiences The Kind of Participation Excepted Context of the Teaching Situation Knowledge and Ability of the teaching Safety Precautions
Methods of Selection Map SUBJECT MATTER (Nature and scope) OBJECTIVES (Knowledge, Skills , Values) CRITERIA FOR METHOD SELECTION CONDUCIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT (lab, room, garden) STUDENTS ABILITY (interest, needs and experiences ACCESS TO TECHNOLOGY (Appropriate Instructional Materials and devices) TEACHERS COMPETENCE (Professional Skill and Personal traits) Factors That affects Decision on Method to be used.
CLASSIFYING METHODSTeaching methods may be classified as to the following1. Where suitable undertakena. In the laboratory roomExamples: Experimenting, Problem Solving, Discovery, Students Researchb. In the field/ communityExamples: Field Study, Exploring community resources
2.Focused Participants: Individual or GroupExamples: Inviting specialist. Lecture, team- teaching, cooperative learning, writing journals, peer-tutoring3.Action- basedExamples: Role playing, sociodrama, simulation game, projects, direct instruction 4. Technology basedExamples: Using audiovisual media, experiential teaching approach, microteaching
5. According to goalsCOGNITIVE Examples: Research, special reports, lecture, readingsAFFECTIVE Examples: Writing journals, narrative, cooperative learning, creative writingPSYCHOMOTOR Examples; Experimenting, projects, simulation, collection6. According to time available1. Class period, Examples: Demonstration, inviting specialist, 2 or 3 days, Examples: Field trip,
General Classification and their Characteristics Methods and techniques employed by teachers can be described and labeled as traditional or progressive. Following are the observed description and characteristics of each. Traditional Method Progressive Method
Basic Step to be Followed Initial Preparation He gathers all the materials that will be need, Prepares them in the right amount and arranges them on the table nearby for accessibility Motivation Phase Lesson Proper He observes How they are Progressing from one activity to another Summarizing phase Assessment Evaluation
Evaluating the Method Used Purpose How can a Method be Evaluated?
