Teaching Methods And Techniques

2. Teaching Methods And
Techniques
 Teaching methods and techniques are important
aspect of every successful class.
 Every teacher must use his/her knowledge to
combine various teaching methods and
techniques in his/her class to achieve goal of
teaching learning process.
 Method and Techniques: By Merriam Webster
dictionary “method is a systematic plan followed
in presenting material for instruction” (
एक विधि एक व्यिस्थित योजना है जो अनुदेश के
लिए सामग्री प्रथतुत करने में अनुसरण की जाती है)

3.  Also “ a discipline that deals with the principles
and techniques of scientific inquiry” is called
method as well.(एक विधि एक अनुशासन है जो
िैज्ञाननक जाांच के लसदिाांतों और तकनीकों से सांबांधित
है)

5. Lecture Method :

6.  According to wikipaedia :A lecture (from the
French lecture, meaning reading) is an oral
presentation intended to present information or
teach people about a particular subject.(एक
व्याख्यान (फ्ाांसीसी व्याख्यान से, स्जसका अिथ है

विशेष विषय के बारे में िोगों को जानकारी देना या
लसिाना है)

7. Advantages and disadvantages
Advantages Disadvantages
 quick exposure to new material, नई
सामग्री के त्िररत सांपकथ ,
 greater teacher control in the
classroom, कक्षा में अधिक लशक्षक
ननयांत्रण,
 an engaging format, which may
complement and clarify course
material, and facilitating large-class
communication. एक आकषथक प्रारूप,
जो पाठ्यक्रम सामग्री को पूरक और
थपष्ट कर सकता है, और बडे िगथ के
सांचार को सुवििाजनक बनाता है।

dissemination of unpublished or not
readily available material. व्याख्यान
अप्रकालशत या आसानी से उपिब्ि
सामग्री के प्रसार की अनुमनत देता है

monotonous if used
alone.

8. Demonstration method

10. Problem solving method
 A problem solving method is a student centered
teaching method which requires students to be
an active participant in classroom activities.
 In this methods students are presented with a
problem in order to find a scientific and
technological solution.(इस तरीके में छात्रों को एक
िैज्ञाननक और तकनीकी समािान िोजने के लिए एक
समथया के साि प्रथतुत ककया जाता है।)

11. Steps in problem solving

12. Advantages and

13. Project method :
 It is modern method of teaching which is child centered. It
was given by Killpatrick.
 The project method is an educational enterprise in which
children solve a practical problem over a period of several
days or weeks.
 Project work focuses on applying, not imparting, specific
knowledge or skills, and on improving student involvement
and motivation in order to foster independent thinking, self-
confidence, and social responsibility.(पररयोजना का काम

 It deals with first hand experience and material .
 Teacher encourages students to derives various
scientific laws and rules on their own by getting
personally involved in experimental work.(लशक्षक
छात्रों को व्यस्ततगत रूप से प्रायोधगक कायथ में शालमि
करके विलभन्न िैज्ञाननक कानूनों और ननयमों को प्राप्त

of an independent discoverer. Thus no help or
guidance is provided by the teacher in this method.
(ह्यूररस्थटक पदिनत में छात्र को एक थितांत्र िोजकताथ के
थिान पर रिा जाता है। इस प्रकार इस पदिनत में लशक्षक
दिारा कोई सहायता या मागथदशथन प्रदान नहीां ककया जाता
है।)
 It is based on the psychological principles of “trial and
error” theory. Logical and imaginative thinking are
perquisites for his type of teaching strategy.(यह

)
 The term drill and practice is
defined as a method of
instruction characterized by
systematic repetition of
provided knowlede ,concepts,
examples, and practice
problems. Drill and practice is a
disciplined and
repetitious exercise, used as a
mean of teaching and perfecting
a skill or procedure.(ड्रिि और

notes.(गनतविधि-आिाररत लशक्षा,
सीिने की प्रकक्रया है। जैसा कक
बच्चों को के िि सुनने और नोट्स
िेने के लिए कहने के लिए विरोि
ककया जाता है)
 activity-based
learning encourages students
to actively participate in their
own learning experience
through practical activities such
as problem-solving and
independent
investigation.(गनतविधि-आिाररत
लशक्षा छात्रों को समथया-समािान
और थितांत्र जाांच जैसे व्यािहाररक
गनतविधियों के माध्यम से अपने
थियां के सीिने के अनुभि में
सकक्रय रूप से भाग िेने के लिए
प्रोत्साद्रहत करती है।

driving force as the entire
learning method revolves
around activity-based learning.
It encourages expression and
creative skills among
children.(सीिने की इस पदिनत
में, िाइविांग बि िाइविांग के रूप में
कायथ करता है तयोंकक सांपूणथ लशक्षण
पदिनत गनतविधि-आिाररत सीिने
के चारों ओर घूमती है। यह बच्चों
के बीच अलभव्यस्तत और
रचनात्मक कौशि को प्रोत्साद्रहत
करता है।)
 Teaching method is informal and
suitable to students need.(लशक्षण
विधि अनौपचाररक और छात्रों की
आिश्यकता के लिए उपयुतत है।)

सकारात्मक या
नकारात्मक या उदासीन
भािना है।)
 Aptitute :
 Aptitude is
associated with skill
enhancement,
learning and
training.(एस्प्टट्यूड
कौशि िृदधि, और
सीिना और प्रलशक्षण
के साि जुडा हुआ है।)

27. Ways to enhance scientific
attitudes and aptitude.
Using various methods of teaching.
Using various techniques
Combining class with experiments
Using flexible evaluation techniques,
