- 7. Classroom techniques dependupon the types of learning styles. Learning styles are simply different approaches or ways of learning . AMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh
- 8. Types of learningstyles Visual Learners Kinesthetic Audio AMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh
- 9. Visual Learners: Learn throughseeing... need to see the teacher's body language and facial expression to understand. prefer sitting at the front think in pictures and learn best from visual displays including: diagrams, illustrated text books, overhead transparencies, videos, flipcharts and hand-outs. during a lecture or discussion, visual learners often take detailed notes. AMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh
- 10. Auditory Learners: learnthrough listening... learn best through verbal lectures, discussions, talking things through and listening to what others have to say written information may have little meaning until it is heard. benefit from reading text aloud and using a tape recorder. AMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh
- 11. Tactile / KinestheticLearners: learn through , moving, doing & touching... learn best through a hands-on activities and exploring the physical world around them. They may find it hard to sit still for long periods and may become distracted by their need for activity and exploration. AMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh

- 34. The goal offormative assessment is to monitor student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by the classroom teacher to drive instruction and to improve learning for students. Formative assessments help students identify their strengths and weaknesses while also providing important data for classroom teacher to address problems immediatelyAMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh
- 35. Formative Assessment inthe Classroom There are 5 key strategies that need to be aligned with classroom practices for effective use of Formative Assessment: Clarifying, understanding, and sharing curriculum ideas Engineering effective classroom discussions, tasks and activities that produce data/evidence for learning Providing feedback that moves learners forward Activating students learning through collaborative learning, reciprocal teaching, and/or peer assessment Activating students as owners of their own learning AMEETA K. PGT CHEMISTRY ZIET Chandigarh
- 36. Conclusion The effectiveclassroom teacher drives instruction through evidence/data gathered by purposeful formative assessments and differentiated activities. It is the classroom teachers’ role to prepare and organize the content and curriculum to be presented ; it is also a teachers’ role to adjust instruction to accommodate students’ differences; and finally All teachers must encourage and engage students in the learning process for deeper understanding of content .
