Teaching is a complex process requiring various methods and techniques in order to achieve its objectives Strategies can be referred to as steps taken to achieve goals. So, in order to achieve teaching goals and objectives various teaching methods and strategies are employed such as lecture method, tutorial method etc.

1. Teaching Strategies
Presented by Shashi Pratap Singh

2. MEANING
• I.K. Davis “ Strategies are broad methods of teaching”.
• Strasser—“Teaching strategy is that plan which lays special
emphasis on teaching objectives, behavioral changes, content, task
analysis, learning experiences and background factors of students.”

3. TYPES
Democratic
Autocratic

4. DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIES
• Democratic Strategies values based on Democracy.
• The democratic strategies are child-centred as the students
determine themselves the content.
• The students’ place is primary and that of teachers is secondary.

oldest and one-way
communication method of
teaching.

capacities of students. Each group is handled by different teachers.
• In this method absence of previous knowledge of students should be
covered and every child should get the chance to express
himself/herself individually.
• This method is a type of remedial teaching and can be suited in
teaching natural science and mathematics subjects.

9. DISCUSSION STRATEGY

selected topics/issues/ideas in a group setting.
• Discussion allows more number of students to actively participate
and helps them to increase learning.
• The discussion method develops the thinking and communication
