METHODS & STRATIGIES IN TEACHING
1. Active Learning- Ask students to engage in their learning by thinking , discussing, investigating and
creating. In class, students practice skills, solve problems , struggle w/ complex questions, make
decisions, propose solutions & explain in their own words.
Ex- think pair, share exercises, jigsaw, discussions
Activities – discussions, role playing, problem solving, case studies.
2. Using the technology – a teaching format that merges lectures, simulations and hands on desktop
experiments to create such collaborative learning experiences.
Teaching strategies- model as you teach *make mistakes * work as a team * encourage learning from
experience * let the students teach * integrate technology in the classroom * try graphic organizers*
emphasize behavior management
3. Case – Based Learning- engages students in discussions of specific scenarios that resembles typically as
real world. This method is learner centered with intense interaction between the participants. The
goal is to prepare students for clinical practice, through the use of authentic clinical cases.
4. Digital Learning- a learning method based on the use of new digital tools to enable learners to learn in
different way. It increases access to education and knowledge while empowering students with a
mindset and allow educators to focus on the individual on their journey, helps the teacher assess the
specific needs of the students difference between digital and on line learning.
DIGITAL- online courses, internet research, online videos, face to face w/ their teacher online- involve
learning through the internet.
5. Effective Lecturing – never go to a class w/ out a plan of how you are going to lecture focus on the
main points of what you want your students to take away from class Consider the wisdom keep slides
consistent Slides are not course notes Lecture concentrating on essentials
6. Team Based Learning- allows the application of learned knowledge while enhancing problem solving
skills w/in a group context through multiple self-assessments and revisions.
7. Flipped learning- a pedagogical approach in which direct instruction moves from the group learning
space to the individual learning space, helps the teachers to prioritize active learning during class time
by assigning students lecture materials and presentations to be viewed at home.
8. Experiential Learning- a philosophy and methodology in which educators purposely engage
w/students in direct experience and focused reflection in order to increase knowledge, develop skills
and clarify values.
9. Direct Instruction – a model for teaching that emphasizes well developed and carefully planned
lessons designed around small learning increments and clearly defined & prescribed teaching tasks,
useful when books or softwares are not available.
10. Indirect Instruction- a student centered approach to learning where students observe, investigate &
draw inferences from data. It is a teaching approach that uses inquiry & encourages higher order
thinking skills.
11. Interactive Instruction- involves give and take activities between students and teachers, encourages
the development of practical skills and develop teamwork through guided social interaction.
12. Independent Study- a form of educational activity undertaken by an individual student w/little or no
supervision. The student is expected to research and study a topic independently.
13. Spaced Practice- spreads lessons and retrieval opportunities out overtime, known as distributed
learning or spaced repetition which helps students learned better
14. Interleaving Strategy- a process where students mix or interleave multiple subjects or topics while
they study to improve their learning. It differs from multitasking which involves a set of materials that
is interconnected.
15. Elaborative Interrogation- a strategy for enhancing memory during the process of learning. Students
responds to “why questions” when presented w/ factual information.
16. Dual Coding- the idea of using different types of stimuli to help learners encode information in their
brains more effectively.
Ex- diagram icons, graphic organizers
17. Inquiry –Based Model- a student centered approach where the instructor guides the students through
questions posed, methods designed and data interpreted by the students.
Ex- Inquiry planning, information retrieving, project processing, project sharing
18. Brainstorming – used to generate a number of ideas to help solve a particular problem.
Ex- Listing , clustering, free writing, looping
19. Reflection teaching strategy- involves examining one’s underlying beliefs about teaching & learning,
one’s alignment w/classroom practices before, during & after a course is taught.
20. Interdisciplinary Approach- involves a combination of 2 or more academic disciplines into one activity,
embrasing ambiguity
