1. The document discusses principles for selecting effective teaching strategies, noting that learning is an active process and involving multiple senses maximizes retention. 2. It recommends an integrated approach that incorporates research-based brain-compatible techniques like using memory aids, building neural networks through different levels of learning, and leveraging the brain's strong visual processing capabilities. 3. Effective strategies discussed include involving students in authentic problems, projects, simulations, visuals, songs/mnemonics, hands-on activities, and reviewing material actively. The best method considers the objective, subject matter, learners, teacher, and school policies.

1.Learning is an active process
What I hear, I forget
What I see, I remember
What I do , I understand
2. The more senses that are involved in
learning, the more and the better the
learning.

3. Contribution of senses to learningContribution of senses to learning
Sight – 75%
Hearing – 13%
Touch – 6%
Taste – 3%
Smell – 3%

4. 3. Emotion has the power to increase retention
and learning.
4. Learning is meaningful when it is connected
to student’s everyday life.
5. Good teaching goes beyond recall of
information.
6. An integrated teaching approach is far more
effective than teaching isolated bits of
information

1. Without rehearsal or constant attention,
information remains in working memory
for only about 15 to 20 seconds. This
implies the need for memory aids.
2. Learning is a process of building neural
networks. This network is formed
through concrete experience,
representational or symbolic learning, and
abstract learning-the 3 levels of learning.

6. 3. Our brains have difficulty
comprehending very large numbers
because we have nothing in our
experience to “hook” them to.
4. The eyes contain nearly 70 percent of
the body’s sensory receptors and send
millions of signals every second along the
optic nerves to the visual processing of
the brain. The capacity of the long-term
memory for pictures seems almost
unlimited.

7. 5. There is little doubt that when
information is embedded in music or
rhyme, its recall is easier than when it is
in prose.

8. Based-Based StrategiesBased-Based Strategies
1. Involving students in real-life or
authentic problem solving.
2. Using projects to increase meaning and
motivation.
3. Simulations and role plays as meaning
makers.
4. Classroom strategies using visual
processing.
5. Songs, jingles, and raps

10.There is no such thing as best teaching
method. The best method is the one that
works, the one that yields result.
