1. “The Cone is a visual analogy, and like all
analogies, it does not bear an exact and detailed
relationship to the complex elements it
represents”
-Edgar Dale

3. Direct experiences are experience of
other people tat we observe, read or
hear about they are not firsthand but
rather vicarious experiences.
4. We use simulation and games to make
our classes interactive and to develop
the decision making skills and
knowledge construction skills of our
students
5. If our teaching is dramatic, our
students get attracted, interested and
affected. If they are affected and
moved by what we taught, we will
most likely leave an impact to them.
6. Demonstration is showing how a thing
is done emphasizing the salient merits,
utility and efficiency of a concept, a
method or a process or an attitude.
7. Field trips are opportunities for rich
and memorable experiences which are
fundamental to learning that last.
8. These are displays to be seen by
spectators. They may consist of
working models arranged
meaningfully or photographs with
models, charts, and posters. Sometimes
exhibits are “for your eyes only.”
9. Film, video and tv provide us with
sounds and sight not easily available
even to the viewer of a real event
through long shots, close ups, zoom
shots magnification and split screen
made possible by the tv camera.
10. Television and motion pictures can
reconstruct the reality of the past so
effectively that we are made to feel we
are there.
11. These are visual and auditory devices which may
be used by an individual or a group. Still pictures
lack the sound and motion of a sound film. The
radio broadcast of an actual event may often be
likened to a televised broadcast minus its visual
dimension.
12. These are no longer realistic
reproduction or physical things for
these are highly abstract
representations. Examples are charts,
graphs, maps, and diagrams.
13. They are not like the objects or ideas
for which they stand. They usually do
not contain visual clues to their
meaning. Written words fall under this
category.
