1. Discuss the importance of the following in the teaching-learning process.

a. Flipchart

Flip charts are low tech, but they are reliable and don’t require any special skill to
use them but here are some tips to help you use them effectively. Flip charts are
quick, inexpensive visual aids for briefing small groups. The charts, felt-tip markers
and graphic materials are readily available, and with a modest ability at lettering,
the presenters can compose the desired visual aid in house. 

b. Wall Display

Wall displays are an important part of any classroom, as they make the room


appear more inviting and create a better learning environment. A good display not
only engages and informs, it also brightens up the atmosphere of the classroom a
plain, drab classroom is uninviting and could affect concentration. Displays can take
the form of useful reference material, to support pupil learning: such as letters of
the alphabet and number lines. Display material can include information that it is
important for students to memories such as number tables, spellings and other
important factual information. Maintaining a good standard of visual displays in
school is important because they communicate powerful messages about what is
valued by the community. they help to build a culture of learning within and beyond
the classroom. they help to give purpose and value to children's work every child's
work matters.

c. Chalk board 

The use of chalkboards in the classroom kicked off the collaborative learning
movement. All communication was now communal. Students learned in groups and
shared knowledge with each other. Lesson formats changed, with instructors
teaching many students at once versus a one-on-one exchange, which led class sizes
to increase. The board became the mindshare of the classroom. chalkboard is the
most useful and versatile of the visual aids at the disposal of a history teacher. It
would not be wrong to say that the chalkboard is irreplaceable and indispensable.
Writing information on a chalkboard helps teachers take visible cues from students.
Teachers can immediately address students' body language and facial expressions
that suggest confusion about the material. Teaching with chalk is especially an
advantage for teachers of students with mixed learning abilities.
d. Diorama

Dioramas can be used throughout all levels of education. They pinpoint a moment


of learning and show deeper levels of understanding. Dioramas can also be used in
real world setting as problem solvers. Overall, dioramas are a fun, creative way to
create a 3-dimensional project. A diorama is a 3-dimensional scene created to
illustrate an academic subject, a plot of a story, or an event in history. Dioramas can
be used throughout all levels of education. They pinpoint a moment of learning and
show deeper levels of understanding.

e. Nature Table

Made to reflect the subtle seasonal changes that occur in the natural world, a nature
table can help children begin to take notice of these changes and find a greater
connection with the world that surrounds them. Nature tables also create a sensory
experience for the child.
Like the what's the weather activity at circle time, a nature table helps connect the
children to day-to-day changes as well as to the larger events that happen outdoors.
Children who are excited about the first snow of the year will be gratified to see that
reflected in their nature table, too.
