General Principle in Selecting
Instructional Materials
Instructional media should follow, not
dictate learning activities
Instructors must be thoroughly familiar
with the content of all media used in
instruction
The instructional media must be
appropiate to the teaching formats
being used.
Instructors should select only
instrutional media that are consistent
with student capabilities and learning
styles.
Instructional media should be chosen
objectively rather on the basis of the
teachers’ personal preference or bias.
Instructional media should be chosen
on the basis of their contributions to
the learning outcomes.
The physical conditions should be
arranged to enhancde results.
Instructional materials produced locally
by instructord usually make significant
contributions to learning.
No one medium is best for all purpose.
God Bless! 
