4. In planning instruction,
teachers draw upon a
complete list of instructional
approaches and methods, and
use combinations of these in
each lesson and unit.
5. Instructional approaches
may be categorized as
1. Direct instruction
2. Indirect instruction
3. Experiential learning
4. Independent study
5. Interactive instruction
7. is the use of straightforward, explicit
teaching techniques, usually to teach a
specific skill. It is a teacher-directed
method, meaning that the teacher stands in
front of a classroom and presents the
information. It might be a lesson in which
the teacher very clearly outlines the order
of all the planets in the solar system, or it
might be a simple explanation and some
examples of the double ff-ll-ss-zz spelling
rule.
10. is a student-led learning process in which
the lesson doesn't come directly from the
teacher. Instead, it is student-centered. The
key is to have students actively engaged in
the learning process, making inquiries,
using critical thinking skills to resolve
problems, and testing hypotheses for
validation. This high level of active student
involvement strengthens the connections to
the learned concepts.
13. is a hands-on approach to help
students become more engaged
and retain more material. With or
without a form of technology,
interactive learning helps
students strengthen problem
solving and critical thinking
skills.
16. is a method of educating through
first-hand experience. Skills,
knowledge, and experience are
acquired outside of the traditional
academic classroom setting, and
may include internships, studies
abroad, field trips, field research,
and service-learning projects.
19. - is an educational activity
undertaken by an individual with
little to no supervision.
- Typically a student and professor
or teacher agree upon a topic for
the student to research with
guidance from the instructor for an
agreed upon amount of credits
