COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The course provides the field study student’s opportunities to observe, examine and reflect on the
application of teaching theories and principles in the actual learning environment. The FSS are expected
to verify the cognitive and meta-cognitive processes that take place in a classroom setting, as well as the
individual differences and motivational factors that influence the learner’s acquisition of knowledge in a
teaching-learning context. Further the FSS are given the chance to try out learning tasks, and suggest
innovative ways and procedures which will involve the learners in varied activities for meaningful
learning experiences.

Instructional media (IM) forms an integral part of classroom instruction. They are the
principal means of direct instruction. Both efficiency of learning and positive attitudes towards
learning are enhanced with the use of IMs.
Humans learn from direct experience. Below is a "Cone of Experience" showing the
progression of learning experiences from direct, first hand participation to purely abstract symbols.
Verbal
Symbols
Visual symbols
Recordings, radio,
Still pictures
Motion Pictures
TV
Exhibits
Study trips
Demonstration
Dramatized experiences
Contrived experiences
The closer you are to the bottom of the cone, the more direct learning experiences; the farther
you are from the bottom, the farther you are from the direct learning experiences.
