This document discusses the three fundamental elements of teaching: cognitive, psychomotor, and affective processes. The cognitive process relates to acquiring knowledge and developing ideas, which affects how people respond to situations. The psychomotor process refers to learning skills through hands-on activities like playing sports or learning a trade. The affective process involves developing feelings and attitudes, with the goal of teaching positive values. Effective teaching incorporates all three elements by telling, showing, and engaging learners actively in the learning process.
