This document discusses key aspects of effective teaching methods including features of teaching, planning for teaching, and phases of teaching. It notes that good teaching is stimulating, guided, and well-planned. Planning is important and should involve clarifying objectives, addressing individual differences, and selecting instructional content and methods. The planning process should consider teacher and student factors. Teaching involves three phases - pre-active planning, interactive presentation, and post-active evaluation to assess achievement of objectives.

2. Features of
Teaching
• Good teaching is stimulating
• Drawing out process
• An active process
• Motivate student
• Mature skill
• Guided skill
• Well-planned
• Means of adjustment
• Equips learners
• Diagnostic and remedial
• Suggestive, democratic, and cooperative

3. A key aspect of effective teaching is having a plan for what will happen in
the classroom each day. Teaching and learning should be well planned with
clear objectives that are understood by learners.
Planning can be defined as “thinking in advance what is to be done, when it
is to be done, how it is to be done and by whom it should be done”.
PLANNING FOR TEACHING

4. PURPOSE OF PLANNING:
The purposes of planning include:
• Clarification of the objectives to the pupils,
• Provision for individual differences,
• Development of means for stimulating interest,
• Provision for a logical instructional sequence,
• Provision for flexibility, and
• Enabling the teacher to teach with confidence.

5. 1. Formulation of instructional objectives
2. Taking decision about content/subject
3. Selecting elements of contents
4. Deciding teaching methods and strategies
5. Resource Development
6. Execution of plan
7. Evaluation
8. Feedback
STEPS OF PLANNING

6. Components of Teaching Planning
• The teachers’ attitudes, beliefs, orientations and teachers’ social background
• The pupils’/students’ age, background, knowledge, motivational level of interest
• The type of content that influences the planning process, textbook and other
instructional materials.
• The learning content/experiences which is characterized by the subject matter
guidelines
• Material resources which include equipment/tools for teaching
• Time frame which is considerable

7. Phases of
Teaching

8. Pre-active phase (planning stage):
This phase accounts for a pre-estimated idea before coming to the classroom. It includes a very good estimated
pre-plan of understanding the class with a “good lesson plan.” Lesson plan preparation includes – formation of
objectives with a selected content – content analysis – development of strategies of teaching.
Inter active phase (presentations phase):
This is concerned with all activities and behavior and manifested by the teacher in and after entering the
classroom during the process of presenting the content. The operation included at this stage is:
(a) Verbal and non-verbal stimulation
(b) Presentation (along with an idea of Action Research)
(c) Development and use of strategies involved in teaching.
Post active phase (evaluation phase):
This phase of teaching accounts for the concept achieved after the classroom situation undertaken by the
teacher which led to the achievement of objectives as estimated earlier. This stage may also be undertaken by
just mere observation. It included
– testing behavioral change of students
– selection of appropriate testing device
– feedback for evaluation
