Teaching approach refers to the principles and beliefs that guide classroom instruction. Teaching strategies are long-term plans to achieve goals, while teaching methods are systematic ways to accomplish tasks. Traditional approaches are teacher-centered and subject-focused, while modern approaches are learner-centered, interactive, collaborative and integrate multiple subjects. Effective approaches are research-based, address students' overall development, develop metacognitive skills, and use problems as a focus for learning.
