2. The process of engaging students
in activities that will enable them
to acquire the knowledge, skills,
as well as worthwhile values and
attitudes.
3. “
“TEACHING IS BOTH A SCIENCE AND AN ART.”
SCIENCE as it is based on psychological
research that identifies “cause and effect
relationship” between teaching and
learning; ART, as it shows how those
relationships are implemented in successful
and artistic teaching.
Is the greatest of the arts because the
medium is the human mind and spirit.
4. It is difficult to define "effective
teaching" -- people with
completely different styles are
equally effective. The one thing
that we have learned in research
in higher education, is that there
is no one best way of teaching.
5. Guiding Principles in
Selection and Use of Teaching
Strategies
1. LEARNING IS AN ACTIVE PROCESS.
As the saying goes:
What I hear, I forget
What I see, I remember.
What I do, I understand
6. 2. THE MORE SENSES THAT ARE INVOLVED IN
LEARNING, THE MORE AND THE BETTER THE
LEARNING.
Make use of visual aids, for
more and better learning
appeal to all the senses of
the learner , if possible.
7. “Humans are intensely visual
animals. The eyes contain nearly
70% of the body’s receptors and
send millions of signals along the
optic nerve s to the visual
processing centers of the brain..
We take in more information
visually than any of the other
senses.” (Wolfe ,2001)

9. 3. A NON –THREATENING
ATMOSPHERE ENHANCES LEARNING
It deals with physical and
psychological climate of the
classroom Physical – the board,
ventilation, proper lighting
condition, order and tidiness and
painting of the room. Psychological-
is an offshoot of our personality as a
teacher.
10. 4. EMOTIONS HAS THE POWER TO
INCREASE RETENTION AND LEARNING
We tend to remember and learn more
those that strike our hearts. Let us add an
emotional touch to learning.
11. “ Our own experience validates that we
remember for a longer time of events that
elicit emotion in us.” (Wolfe 2001)
Involve the emotion in learning . Cognitive
processing is emotionally charged.
12. 5. LEARNING IS MEANINGFUL
WHEN IT IS CONNECTED TO
STUDENTS’ EVERYDAY LIFE.
For meaning, connect your teaching
to your student’s everyday life.
13. 6. GOOD TEACHING GOES BEYOND
RECALL OF INFORMATION.
It is to develop creative and critical
thinking. Most teaching are confined to
recall of information and comprehension.
It should reach the levels of application,
analysis, synthesis and evaluation to hone
our students’ thinking skills.
14. 7. AN INTEGRATED TEACHING
APPROACH IS FAR MORE EFFECTIVE
THAN TEACHING ISOLATED BITS OF
INFORMATION. INTELLIGENCE

16. 8. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS BEST
TEACHING METHOD THE ONE THAT
WORKS, THE ONE THAT YIELDS
RESULTS.
