focus, acting as the “authoritative expert, the
main source of knowledge, and focal point of all
activity”

It strength, however lies in the efficiency that is
achieved in communicating much information.

their ideas and share ideas with others through
discussion or collaborative work.

cognitive understanding and skills development,
than merely passing examinations.

appropriately, although the student-centred style

better application of knowledge and better
motivation for learning.
A.A AHMED

13. whichever style a teacher adopts in teaching will
depends on how (s) he perceives her/his student in the
learning process. If perceived as an instructor, the teacher
will select teaching approaches that give an authoritative
role, whereas as a facilitator (s) he will prefer approaches
that introduce more flexibility and more student
engagement as co-creator in the learning process.
