One of the most important elements of teaching is having a large assortment of different instructional strategies, and choosing which ones to use based on your student population. Properly using instructional strategies is a valuable aspect to teaching because it keeps students engaged and active. Instructional strategies are not necessarily important than content in a classroom, but they will tremendously enhance the way students learn that material Moreover, the use of these materials minimizes concerns about breakage, repair and loss since they are readily available in the environment. It informs both students and teachers that alternatives for some of the conventional science teaching materials are possible. It also shows that people can do scientific experiments with the materials around them. It could lead to the discovery of new knowledge, and students' talents may be discovered. Using improvised instructional materials assist teachers economically and may make students more interactive. Beyond these, it makes students make use of their intellectual ability in the process of teaching and learning
Science lab equipment allows students to actually perform
experiments rather than just read about them. Instead of taking monotonous notes, they can observe and complete exciting experiments. Such hands-on learning often makes it easier to understand challenging theories and concepts.
Instructional materials are those materials used by a teacher to
simplify their teaching. They include both visual and audio-visual aids and could either be concrete or non-concrete. These instructional materials bring life to learning by stimulating students to learn.
Learning materials can significantly increase learners'
achievement by supporting learning. For example, an educational video may provide a learner with new insights and an appealing worksheet may provide the learner with new opportunities to practice a new skill gained in class. Science can be fun and dangerous both at the same time. If you don’t have a proper knowledge that how to use the chemical and laboratory instruments properly, you can come across all sorts of damage. Though being curious is a good thing but you must always have the required information about the Lab Chemicals before using it. Without having the accurate information or knowledge, it can be too tough as well as risky to go with the experiments. When you do not know what chemicals is used for what purpose, how you can even imagine that you will go in a right way
To conclude, schools must have the latest science lab supplies
and equipment to make science interesting and effective for students and to encourage them to make significant contributions in the field of physics, biology, chemistry, and other streams of science later in life.
The presentation of Sir Colisao is very innovative, timely and
relevant used in the field of Science. He used improvised materials to simulate the interest of the learners and enables learners to participate. With this, congratulations ! I will surely use your idea in teaching Science. In general, the presentation and the materials or improvised aid are commendable. The presentation is very detailed. All the objectives presented were achieved. Congratulations Ma’am!
