INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIAL MAKING PROCEDURES

Creating instructional materials in education involves a systematic process


to ensure effectiveness and relevance to the learning objectives. The procedure
typically begins with a thorough analysis of the curriculum and learning goals,
identifying the key concepts and skills that need to be addressed. Next, educators
or instructional designers outline the structure and content of the material, ensuring
alignment with pedagogical principles and student needs. The development phase
involves the actual creation of the materials, incorporating engaging and interactive
elements such as visuals, examples, and activities. Throughout this process,
continuous feedback from educators, learners, and experts helps refine and
improve the materials. Once the instructional materials are finalized, they undergo
rigorous testing to ensure clarity, coherence, and effectiveness in facilitating
learning. Regular updates and revisions are essential to adapt to evolving
educational standards and address feedback for continuous improvement.

TRADITIONAL IM’s

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the lesson, learners will be able to:

1. Analyze a specific TIM’s (e.g., textbook, chart, manipulative);


2. Design a lesson plan that incorporates an appropriate TIM’s, explaining how
the chosen TIM’s aligns with the learning objectives; and
3. value the importance of TIM’s in the 21st century learning.

Instructional Materials, also known as Teaching/Learning Materials


(TLM), are any collection o of materials including animate and inanimate objects
and human and non-human resources that a teacher may use in teaching and
learning situations to help achieve desired learning objectives. Instructional
materials may aid a student in concertizing a learning experience to make learning
more exciting, interesting, and interactive. They are tools used in instructional
activities which include active learning and assessment. The term encompasses
all the materials and physical means an instructor might use to implement
instruction and facilitate student's achievement of instructional objectives.

Traditional Instructional Materials or TIMs are employed in traditional
c3aT6i4QDFQAAAAAdAAAAABAE

educational materials to support teaching and learning in a classroom


environment. They have long been a cornerstone of education, and even with the
emergence of modern technology such as digital tools, they remain valuable in a
variety of educational settings.

CHARACTERISTICS OF TIM’s:

Tangible and physical: They exist in a physical form that students can interact
with directly, as opposed to digital resources accessed through computers or
devices.
Teacher-centered: They are often designed and delivered by the teacher, with
less emphasis on student-led exploration and discovery.
Standardized and structured: They tend to follow a set curriculum and may lack
the flexibility to adapt to individual student needs or learning styles.
Emphasis on memorization and recall: They often focus on rote learning and
memorization of facts and concepts.
ADVANTAGES OF TIM’s:
Accessibility: They are often readily available and affordable, making them
accessible to a wider range of schools and communities.
Versatility: They can be used in various subjects and adapted to different learning
styles.
Hands-on learning: They can provide opportunities for students to engage with
the material in a tactile and interactive way.
Familiarity: Many teachers and students are comfortable using TIMs due to their
long history in education.

EXAMPLES OF TIM’s
1. Textbook
In traditional schools, a fixed curriculum covers core
subjects, using textbooks for presenting content and
emphasizing student study and memorization.

2. Workbooks
A workbook is a book to help you learn a particular
subject which has questions in it with spaces for the
answers.

3. Handouts
A document given to students or reporters that
contains information about a particular subject: On page two
of your handout, you will find a list of the books that I have
referred to during the lecture.

4. Charts and Graphs


Graphs can provide quick and easy visual
summaries that allow teachers to determine patterns of
behavior, evaluate the results of new teaching strategies,
and establish whether or not interventions are having the
desired effects.

5. Manipulatives and models


Manipulatives, in the context of education, are physical
tools of teaching, engaging students visually and physically with
objects such as coins, blocks, puzzles, markers, etc.

6. Blackboards or whiteboards
both writing surfaces that share the same basic
function – facilitating information-sharing.

Traditional instructional materials (TIMs) continue to be significant in


education despite the development of contemporary approaches for a number of
reasons. Schools and communities may easily utilize them due of their price and
accessibility. Because of their adaptability, they may be tailored to the needs of
specific students as well as different subjects and learning styles. Furthermore,
TIMs are well-known to many educators and students, which eases anxiety and
promotes efficient instruction. They also provide the advantages of tactile, hands-
on learning experiences. Although TIMs should be utilized carefully and in
conjunction with other approaches, such as technology, their special benefits
guarantee that they will remain important instruments in educators' toolkit.

While the educational landscape evolves, TIMs continue to hold value as


accessible, versatile, and familiar tools for teachers. Their effectiveness lies in their
strategic use as part of a broader teaching approach that leverages the strengths
of both traditional and modern methods to optimize learning outcomes for all
students.

ICT INTEGRATED IMS

Learning Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the student will be able to:
1. Analyze the different ICT tools used in making instructional materials,
2. Create a visually appealing and informative instructional material using ICT
tools; and
3. value the importance of ICT-integrated IMs in the 21st-century teaching and
learning

Instructional materials provide the core information students will experience,


learn, and apply during a course. They hold the power to either engage or
demotivate students. This is especially true for online courses, which rely on a
thoughtful and complete collection of instructional materials that students will
access, explore, absorb, and reference as they proceed in a course.
Therefore, such materials must be carefully planned, selected, organized,
refined, and used in a course for maximum effect. The planning and selection of
instructional materials should consider both the breadth and depth of content to
optimize student learning.

Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) is the type of technology


employed in the shape of tools, equipment and application support, that helps in
the collection, storage, retrieval, use, transmission, manipulation and
dissemination of information as accurately and efficiently as possible. It is for the
purpose of enriching the knowledge and developing communication, decision
making as well as problem solving ability of the user.
ICT will not only include hardware devices connected to computers and
software applications but also interactive digital content, internet, and other
satellite communication devices, radio and television services, web-based content
repositories, interactive forums, learning management systems, and management
information systems.
These will also include processes for digitization, deployment, and management
of content, development, and deployment of platforms and processes for capacity
development, and creation of forums for interaction and exchange.

Examples of ICT tools:


1. Desktop/Laptops are common
tools used in education. The teachers
used this to present their lessons. Using
this device, it is easy to discuss and
explain to the students. It is useful
because the teachers can get students'
attention using this. It can be used to
show some photos and video clips about
their lessons. It is a powerful tool used in
education. There are many other uses of this tool, such as use for
communication, computation, record keeping, and other related stuff.

2. Projector is a tool used to display the


photos or images in bigger size. Using
a computer alone, it's not easy to see
the images or video clips because it is
small, but because of the projector, you
can see and understand them easily.
This tool and the desktop/laptop will
work together when cables are
connected. This is very useful tool in
teaching and also when there are meetings held at the school.
3. Digital Camera is also used in
education. It is used for documentation of
important events like school elections, contests,
meetings, and other related stuff.
4. Printer is also a useful ict tool in education. This
is used to print some important documents in
the school or printing those activities or projects.
Students can use this tool and teachers. You
can make more copy of the document in a few
minutes.
5. Scanners are used to scan documents or
photos. This is helpful tool because it is easy to
make a copy and less hassle.

6. TV is also used in
teaching. Sometimes
teachers play movie which
are related to their lesson
and it is very entertainment
to watch. Also, the tv is very
useful device to improve the
teaching at the class.
7. Web Design This ICT tool is
used to create websites. This tool
is use in building awesome and
fast websites. Students can study
this and create their own. There
are many webs design software’s
or websites that are useful. It is
useful for the students who take
courses related to ICT.
8. Publishing Programs are also useful
ICT tool. This can be use in journalism It is great
to use because there are templates that can be
use and some great features that can be used.
9. Blogging this ICT tool is
also useful. There are
some great platforms for
this like WordPress,
BlogSpot and other stuff.
You can also make your
own website using this
platform.
10. Presentation

Software’s this ICT tool in education is useful for the


students and teachers. When you are making your
report or group report this tool is very useful. It will
make the discussion easier to understand and more
entertaining. Teachers also use this in teaching.
Another useful thing about presentation software is it
can be use when there are meetings and contest at
the school.

11. Animations this ICT tools is very useful to those students who are taking
animation courses. The animation is very entertaining and great to watch.
But making animation is not easy. It takes time to make it. A ten-second
animation can take about one hour or more. So, having animation software
is great and helpful to students.
12. Spreadsheets: this ICT tool is useful for teachers
in computing the student's scores or grades. This
tool is useful in computation, especially when there
are a lot of numbers in the computer. Also, this can
be used to keep records.
13. Word processing software This ICT tool is useful
in creating documents. Students make their
projects that need to be printed. This tool is a great
one to use. They can edit and design what they
want using it.
Importance of ICT in Education and Teaching-Learning Process:
ICT plays the same role in our information and communication process and
their outcomes as played by other technologies in making our lives comfortable
and purposeful. ICT in education has tremendous potential to serve and help the
people connected with the process and product of education in many ways.
1. ICT can align the existing educational system with the knowledge-based,
information-rich society by providing services of sophisticated tools,
techniques, and methods at its disposal.
2. The use of ICT can bring about a paradigm shift in traditional views and
methods of teaching — and learning processes. Some of the changes are
as follows:
a. It will help transition from a broadcast learning model to interactive
learning. Thus, making the students active and participating in the
teaching—learning process.
b. Helps in the process of transitioning from teacher-centered
instruction to learner-centered instruction. Students become self-
reliant and self-directed in acquisition and application of knowledge
and skills
c. Shift's emphasis from teaching to learning creates a more
interactive and engaging learning environment for teachers and
students.
d. Changes the role of teachers from a mere knowledge transmitter to
that of a learning facilitator, knowledge guide, or navigator, and an
active co-learner along with students.
e. Enables students to become more responsible about their learning
as they seek out relevant information and knowledge through their
own efforts, synthesize and share their knowledge with others. It
makes them realize their educational potentials.
f. ICT helps students to think critically and creatively and to reflect on
their own learning process. They even set their individual goals for
growth and development of their potentials.
3. ICT prepares teachers to meet challenges of the teaching-learning task of
modern age. It helps teachers in proper execution of their multi-dimensional
responsibilities in various areas of education.
4. ICT can be beneficial not only to teachers for their own education and
training but also to use it creatively for accelerating the educational growth
of their students.
5. Schools or Students that have no access to computer devices like PCs,
laptops, tablets or smartphones can especially utilize ICT in the form of
Radiobroadcasts and Telecast. There are specific educational programs
such as Gyanvani and Gyandarshan hosted by Akashvani and
Doordarshan respectively to cater to the subjects of a school curriculum.

For such students, traditional ICT tools such as pictures, charts,


models, graphs, blackboard, newspapers, educational visits, excursions or
educational fairs and exhibitions can be utilized for learning and applying
school subjects.
6. In schools, or students that have access to the computer but no internet
connection
a. pre-recorded CDs and DVDs containing helpful content may be
used.
b. Various word processing programs such as MS Word can be used
by both teachers and students alike. Teachers can prepare their
lesson plans, write questionnaires, and prepare evaluations and
diagnostic tests to check the performance of the students. Students
can make their assignments using MS Word using creative designs
and templates.
c. MS Excel can be used by teachers in middle and primary school for
data collection, analysis, and presentation. It is essential to teach
students the importance of data collection and representation in the
form of — Bar graphs, pie charts, histograms, etc.
d. PowerPoint presentations can be prepared by teachers as well as
students using the MS PowerPoint Application to present and
demonstrate their lessons effectively and efficiently.
e. Interactive whiteboards (IWB), also known as smartboards, are
electronic and digital boards that help show what’s presented on a
computer desktop with the help of a projector. It helps to control the
computer with the help pf a pen to conduct a lecture interactively.
f. Software such as Interactive Geometry software, Instructional
Software, Simulation, gaming and recreational software provides for
rich alternative source for teaching and learning. They can help to
remove fear and phobias related to study of a subject while providing
them opportunities to learn while playing or engaging in virtual
applications of the principles and processes of a subject.

An intelligent software, while interacting with students in its


tutorial, may tell where an error was made on the part of the.
Students, while solving problems offer suggestions for reaching a.
correct answer explicitly based on the student's incorrect answer.

7. In the case of students who have computer services in school with internet
facilities, the amount of information available to them is immeasurable.

a. World Wide Web (WWW) is updating the knowledge warehouses for


students, teachers, and scientists due to the enormous progress of
ICT. Anybody can refer to the latest information and research every
day.
b. Open universities and distance education through ICT are new
openings for working people to acquire knowledge to study at home
also.
c. The manpower and human mistakes can be avoided by online
examination. It maintains objectivity of examination. And requires
minimum time even though examination can be conducted on
demand.

Advantages of ICT in Education

1. Teaching Makes Easier


Teachers are the people with one of highly benefited of having ICT in education.
Through the use of it, it makes the teaching easier. When a teacher teaches the
student on a new lesson it makes for them easy to inform and to evaluate what
they want them to know. Creating documents files, pdf files or power point
presentation through the use of cellphone with application. Or laptop for them to
show the topics that they will going to tackle is a great way for teaching.
The teachers will have a fast and effective way of teaching because they
can just scroll up and down to show the lesson. The documents that compose of a
lot of information like text, pictures that show information like info graphics. An or
videos that contains the lessons that they will going to a very effective to inform.
The student will affect in good way because of what they see and it will be
advantage that they can remember it for long time.
2. Lesson can be seen and be heard
The advantage of information communication technology is the lessons can be
seen and heard. Unlike in the books, you can just see it, seeing those pages with
paragraphs and full of text, and sometimes we can see the pictures. We can also
hear it when our classmates or our teacher reads it aloud to the class but using
technology is different. The sound coming from the videos or music that is being
used will be played over and over again, which, makes it remembered well.
3. Easier to Understand
When you see a picture appearing on the white screen using a projector, you
understand it easily what it really means. The lessons that the teacher teach on
you is easily to understand.
4. Improves Communication
The proper way of saying a word or words, the correct grammar, and the meaning
of the words will be improved. The teacher teaches or asks the student, and the
student responds if the teacher knows that it is incorrect, then he/she can correct
it. Communication improves with the help and guidance of the teacher and also
the technology.
5. Enjoying While Learning
Images, music, and videos are one of the sources of entertainment. When people
see that they are happy and enjoy. Through the colorful images we are happy when
we see them Right? And we enjoy listening to the music and imagining what it
really means. Sometimes we laugh at the music that has another meaning. The
videos are enjoying to watch and we really educated when we see such those
kinds of media.
6. Students Perform Better
The students perform better when it is attractive and when they think that it will be
interesting.
7. Know More Information
The internet is one of the fastest ways of getting information because just one
touch, one clicks you can now get what you want to know. The teacher and the
students both get more information by the way they use it. When a teacher teach
using a book there's an information their but not all. He/She can get additional
information coming from the internet that will much precise and easy to follow.
8. Improves Visual Skill
When we are learning with the use of pictures or videos, our visual skill improves.
Some teachers use riddles using photos that will improve our thinking skills, not
just our cognitive skills but also our visual skills. We are happy and excited when
we see riddles. We want to be the first to answer those pictures. And because of
that, we are enjoying the lesson.
9. Students are motivated to go to School
When a student enjoys going to school, they are motivated to always go. They will
seldom be absent because they are happy and enjoying school. When we are
motivated, we can do things better, and we are making it amazing. The technology
makes it happen. When you enjoy listening to the teachers because of the
technology they use you will be motivated.
10. Getting a Good Grades
The best of benefits of studying ICT is the students get a good grade. You can see
that when students motivate to study, enjoy, and perform better they will have a
good or better grades. Seeing the student improves and to pass their subject and
go to the next level. The teachers smile and happy when it happens.

Challenges And Issues Related to ICT In Education

1. High Cost of ICT Tools:


The most important challenge in successfully integrating ICT into education is the
high cost of ICT tools. Due to high cost imposed on tools than the traditional face
to face learning, it is really impossible to purchase the tools for implementation of
ICT into education.
2. Poor ICT Infrastructure
Poor ICT Infrastructure is also another important issue and challenge in the
successful implementation of ICT in education. Infrastructure such as hardware,
software, internet access, and similar other resources that are required to integrate
technology in teaching and learning are not sufficient.
Challenge Of Language and Culture
A large portion of the educational software produced in the world market is in
English. English is the dominant language of the internet. Majority of the online
content is in English. Teaching learning resources used in connection with ICT are
not suitable in the rural areas which becomes a serious barrierto maximize the
benefit of ICTs.
1. Lack Of Technical Support:
Another important issues in integrating ICT in education is lack of technical
support. Technical support is essential to the continued viability of ICT use for every
learning institution. Due to lack of specialized skill personnel, Educational
Institutions fail to implement technology in education.
2. Lack Of Trained Teachers: -
There is a lack of trained teachers to implement ICT in education. Teachers are
not trained to use ICT in their teaching. Teachers need to acquire new skills to
prepare the students with necessary skills required for the 21st century. Due to
lack of any quality training. Teachers are not comfortable to use ICT tools for
making teaching and learning effective.
3. Insufficient Funds:
Implementation of ICT into education system requires a magnum of funds,
infrastructure and support facilities. But there is a lack of insufficient govt. fund for
use of ICT in education.
4. Weak Govt. Policies:
For the successful implementation of ICT in education. There is an urgent need of
Govt. policies. But the Govt. policies are not strong. As a result we can hardly
expect the implementation of ICT in
education.

• Traditional Curricular Framework is also a hindrance in integrating ICT into


education.
• Unfavorable organizational culture and poor attitude towards the use of
technologies is also factor in integrating ICT in education.
• Lack of co-ordination among the agencies with the ICT responsibilities is
also a hindrance in integrating ICT in education.

ALTERNATIVE DELIVERY SYSTEMS

Learning Objectives

At the end of the lesson, students should be able to:


1. Discuss the definition of alternative delivery systems and their types.
2. Create an infographic displaying the commonly used applications and
instructional materials for alternative delivery systems.
3. Recognize the advantages and disadvantages of alternative delivery
systems in the field of education.

The term “alternative delivery system” in education refers to a mode of


instruction that is distinct from the traditional face-to-face classroom setting.
Alternative delivery systems can include online learning, distance learning, and
blended learning models. Each of these instructional methods has its own unique
set of benefits and drawbacks that should be considered when choosing the best
delivery system for a particular educational setting.
Alternative delivery systems are management systems used in Inclusion
classrooms that provide support for students and maximize learning while being
presented with the core curriculum. It is an approach that uses success - oriented
presentations and the elements of collaboration and school-based coordination in
its implementation. The goal of alternative delivery systems is to develop many
creative ways of working together for the benefit of all students.
Inclusion classrooms use management systems that assist students in
learning and are presented with the same curriculum as the classroom. This
program incorporates collaboration and school-based coordination elements, as
well as success-oriented presentations.
In alternative delivery/contracting, rather than being required to create a
physical asset or improvement, as in design-bid-build, we compete to maximize
positive outcomes and provide the highest value and benefit to the owner and their
customers.

TYPES OF ALTERNATIVE DELIVERY SYSTEM

1. Synchronous Learning
Synchronous learning is an instructional
method that involves real-time interaction
between instructors and students. In this
learning model, participants engage in
learning activities, discussions, and
lectures simultaneously, regardless of
their physical locations. Synchronous
learning relies on communication
technologies to facilitate live, interactive
sessions, allowing for immediate feedback and collaboration.

Characteristics of Synchronous Learning


• Real-Time Interaction:
✓ Synchronous learning involves live, immediate interaction between
instructors and learners. Participants engage with the content,
discussions, and activities simultaneously, fostering real-time
communication.
• Scheduled Sessions:
✓ Learning activities, such as lectures, discussions, and collaborative tasks,
are scheduled to occur at specific times. Participants are expected to
attend these sessions simultaneously, following a set timetable.
• Live Lectures and Presentations:
✓ Instructors deliver live lectures and presentations during synchronous
sessions. This allows for direct communication, dynamic content delivery,
and the ability to respond to student questions in real-time.
• Interactive Discussions:
✓ Synchronous learning supports interactive discussions where participants
can actively engage with each other. This interaction can take place
through video conferencing, audio communication, chat features, or other
collaborative tools.
• Immediate Feedback:
✓ Instructors can provide immediate feedback to students during live
sessions. This instant feedback is valuable for addressing questions,
clarifying concepts, and guiding learners in real-time.
• Use of Technology:
✓ Synchronous learning relies on various communication technologies,
such as video conferencing platforms, web conferencing tools, chat
systems, and other interactive tools, to facilitate live engagement.
• Structured Timeframes:
✓ Synchronous learning follows a structured timetable, often resembling
traditional classroom schedules. This structure includes regular class
sessions, office hours, and other planned activities.
• Demonstrations and Simulations:
✓ Instructors can conduct live demonstrations, simulations, or experiments
during synchronous sessions. This allows students to witness and
participate in real-time activities.

Technologies that Support Synchronous Learning

Broadcast Radio
Broadcast radio in education involves
using radio as a medium to deliver
educational content and programming.
This method has been utilized for decades
to reach diverse audiences, including
students, teachers, and the general public.
Educational radio programs can cover a
wide range of topics, from academic
subjects to cultural enrichment and community engagement. It is the most
accessible as it can reach people even in the most deprived areas. The delivery
formats in broadcast radio can be; discussion, documentary, drama and interview.

Advantages
• Wide Reach:
✓ Broadcast radio has a broad audience reach, making it an effective
medium to reach a large number of students, especially in rural or remote
areas where internet access may be limited.
• Cost-Effective:
✓ Setting up and maintaining a radio broadcast system can be more cost-
effective than some other forms of communication, such as internet-based
platforms or printed materials.
• Accessible:
✓ Radio is accessible to a wide range of individuals, including those who
may not have access to the internet or advanced technology. It is also
inclusive for people with disabilities, as it doesn't rely on visual content.
• Real-Time Information:
✓ Broadcast radio allows for the delivery of real-time information, such as
news updates or emergency announcements, which can be crucial in
educational settings.
• Minimal Technical Requirements:
✓ Radio broadcasting does not require sophisticated technical equipment
for listeners. Basic radio receivers are widely available and affordable.

Disadvantages
• Lack of Interactivity:
✓ Unlike some digital platforms, broadcast radio does not provide a high level
of interactivity. Listeners cannot easily ask questions or engage in
discussions, limiting the two-way communication that is often beneficial in
educational settings.
• Limited Content Storage:
✓ Radio broadcasts are ephemeral, and there's no inherent capability for
archiving or storing content for later access. This can be a disadvantage for
students who miss a broadcast or want to revisit the material.
• Audio-Only Format:
✓ While audio is a powerful medium, it lacks the visual element that can
enhance learning experiences. Certain educational content may be better
conveyed through visual aids, diagrams, or videos.
• Limited Customization:
✓ Broadcasting content to a diverse audience may limit the ability to customize
material for specific groups or individual learning styles.

Audio Conferencing
Also known as teleconferencing. It is a
delivery system in which instruction is an
alternative delivery system in which
instruction may happen through
telecommunication system. Exchange of
ideas, information and messages are
articulated remotely from the teacher to
students and vice versa with the use of
telephone or computer.
Advantages
• Remote Learning:
✓ Audio conferencing enables remote learning by allowing students to
participate in virtual classrooms or attend lectures from different locations.
This is particularly valuable for learners who cannot be physically present on
campus or person with disabilities.
• Accessibility:
✓ It doesn’t need much internet reception compared to other technologies, as
it only uses audio in communicating.
• Parent-Teacher Communication:
✓ Audio conferencing facilitates communication between parents and
teachers. Virtual parent-teacher conferences allow for discussions about a
student's progress, academic performance, and any concerns.

Disadvantages
• Technical Issues:
✓ Poor internet connectivity, audio quality issues, and technical glitches
can disrupt the learning experience and hinder effective communication.
• Limited Interaction:
✓ Audio conferencing lacks the non-verbal cues and face-to-face
interaction found in traditional classrooms, which can impact student
engagement and understanding.
• Distractions:

TEACHERS AS INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIAL

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the lesson, students should be able to:


1. List down the teachers’ qualities to be considered valuable instructional
material.
2. Create a role-play scenario proving teachers cannot be replaced by artificial
intelligence (AI) as effective instructional material.
3. Value the role of teachers as effective instructional material and artificial
intelligence (AI) as a helpful assistant rather than a potential replacement for
human teachers.

The term "teacher as an instructional material" refers to the role of the


teacher as a crucial and dynamic resource in the educational process. While
teachers are not physical materials like textbooks or charts, they play a central role
in delivering instruction, facilitating learning, and creating a supportive learning
environment.
The role of a teacher extends far beyond delivering lectures and assigning
assessments. In the dynamic realm of education, teachers are not merely
conveyors of information; they are, in essence, instructional materials that play a
pivotal role in shaping the minds of their students. This compilation explores the
multifaceted dimensions of the teacher as instructional material, highlighting the
profound impact educators have on the learning journey.
Teachers are often considered the best instructional material due to their
unique and dynamic role in the educational process. Unlike traditional instructional
materials, which may include textbooks, videos, or online resources, teachers
possess distinctive qualities that contribute significantly to the learning experience.

Here are several reasons why teachers are considered the best instructional
material,

1. Facilitators of Learning:
Teachers guide students through the learning process, explaining concepts,
providing examples, and answering questions. They adapt their teaching
methods to meet the needs of individual students and the overall class.
2. Modeling Behavior and Values:
Teachers are not only purveyors of academic knowledge but also exemplars of
behavior and values. Students often learn not only from what is taught but also
from observing the teacher's actions and attitudes. The teacher's conduct, work
ethic, and interpersonal skills become instructional materials that contribute to
the holistic development of learners.
3. Building Relationships:
Effective teaching involves establishing meaningful connections with students.
The teacher's ability to create a positive and inclusive learning environment
becomes a crucial instructional material. A supportive atmosphere fosters trust,
encourages participation, and enhances the overall educational experience.
4. Interpersonal Skills:
Teachers build relationships with students, creating a positive and inclusive
learning environment. Their interpersonal skills foster trust, engagement, and
effective communication within the classroom. It is where a teacher takes the
time to understand each student's background, interests, and challenges,
creating a supportive atmosphere where students feel comfortable expressing
their thoughts and seeking help.
5. Immediate Feedback:
Unlike static instructional materials, teachers provide immediate and
personalized feedback to students. This helps in clarifying doubts, reinforcing
concepts, and guiding students toward improvement. It is where after a class
discussion, a teacher provides specific feedback on individual contributions,
addressing misconceptions, and offering praise for thoughtful insights, creating
a dynamic feedback loop.
6. Catering to Emotional Needs:
Teachers understand the emotional well-being of their students and provide a
supportive and caring environment. This emotional support contributes to
effective learning and holistic development. It is where a teacher acknowledges
the emotional challenges students may face, offering encouragement,
empathy, and creating a classroom culture that values emotional well-being
alongside academic success.
7. Dynamic Classroom Management:
Teachers employ effective classroom management strategies, creating an
environment conducive to learning. They can adapt their methods based on the
specific needs and behaviors of the class. Recognizing the need for
engagement, a teacher incorporates interactive activities, group discussions,
and individual projects to maintain a lively and focused classroom atmosphere.
A teacher can modify lesson plans, introduce creative teaching strategies, and
design engaging activities to cater to different learning styles and challenges.
8. Complex Decision-Making:
Teaching often involves making complex decisions that require a deep
understanding of context, ethics, and the unique characteristics of each
student. AI may struggle with the complexity of these decisions, especially in
situations where ethical considerations and real-time judgment are crucial. A
teacher might make decisions related to classroom management, assessment
strategies, and student support that go beyond the capabilities of AI algorithms.
9. Cultural Sensitivity:
Teachers often need to navigate and understand diverse cultural backgrounds
within the classroom. They provide contextually sensitive education, respecting
cultural differences and promoting inclusivity, a task that AI may struggle to
perform with the same level of nuance.

The teacher as instructional material embodies the heart and soul of education.
Beyond disseminating information, educators inspire, mentor, and guide students
on their educational journey. Recognizing the teacher's pivotal role in shaping
minds and fostering growth underscores the importance of investing in
professional development, creating supportive learning environments, and
acknowledging the transformative power of educators in the lives of their students.
Does Teacher Can Be Replaced by Any Artificial Intelligence?

The senior lecturer Mr. Stephen


Hall once said that “The AI may
have the potential to eventually
replace the teacher but I don’t think
it can replace the teacher”,
meaning AI might be smart enough,
but not enough to be a teacher.
Since the true idea of teaching means love which reflects the profound and
compassionate nature of the teacher-student relationship. In this context,
"teaching with love" goes beyond the mere transmission of information and
encompasses a deep commitment to the well-being and growth of the learner.
Love in teaching involves fostering a supportive and nurturing environment where
students feel valued, respected, and understood. It means recognizing and
appreciating the unique strengths and challenges of each student, and guiding
them with patience and empathy. While AI can assist in certain aspects of
education, it lacks the emotional intelligence, intuition, and genuine care that a
human teacher brings to the learning environment.
The true education is not just about acquiring knowledge; it's about shaping
young minds, instilling values, and nurturing human connections. And that is where
the magic of human teachers truly shines.
AI has undoubtedly proven its prowess in explaining popular topics and
providing information on a wide array of subjects. It can present facts and figures
in a concise and digestible manner, catering to various learning styles. In this fast-
paced digital age, where students are well-versed in technology and have the
world's information at their fingertips, AI can be a valuable tool to enhance their
learning experience.
Human teachers possess a unique blend of empathy, intuition, and
adaptability that cannot be replicated by machines. They can read the room, sense
when a student is struggling, and offer personalized guidance tailored to each
individual's needs. They provide encouragement, inspiration, and serve as
mentors who not only teach subject matter but also help students navigate the
complexities of life.
Education is also a deeply human experience that thrives on connection
and collaboration. Classroom discussions, debates, and group projects are
avenues where students learn from one another, share diverse perspectives, and
develop crucial interpersonal skills. While AI might offer pre-programmed
responses and simulate conversation, it lacks the depth of understanding and
genuine interaction that human teachers bring to the table.
Now, before you start feeling threatened by the advancements in AI, let me
offer you some reassurance. Rather than seeing AI as a potential replacement,
let's envision it as a teaching assistant, a co-worker who can help make your job
much easier. AI can assist with administrative tasks, such as grading assignments
or generating personalized lesson plans. It can provide data-driven insights into
student performance, enabling you to tailor your teaching strategies more
effectively. AI can even offer suggestions for engaging educational resources or
recommend strategies to address specific learning challenges.
Embracing AI in education can be a win-win situation. It allows teachers to
focus on what they do best—inspiring, guiding, and connecting with students on a
deeper level. Instead of spending hours on repetitive tasks, teachers can invest
their time in building relationships, designing innovative lessons, and fostering a
positive classroom culture. With AI taking care of the more mundane aspects of
teaching, educators can unleash their creativity and make a lasting impact on their
students' lives.

Conclusion:

While AI has undoubtedly made remarkable advancements in education, it


is unlikely to replace human teachers entirely. Education is a multifaceted journey
that goes beyond the transmission of knowledge. It's about shaping young minds,
instilling values, and fostering human connections. Human teachers possess the
unique ability to nurture and inspire students in ways that AI simply cannot
replicate.

So, don't be afraid. Embrace AI as a helpful assistant, a technological ally


that can enhance your teaching practice. Embrace the possibilities it brings, but
also recognize the profound impact you have as human teachers. You are the
mentors, guides, and role models who shape the next generation. And no matter
how advanced AI becomes, it will never replace the essence of what you do—
inspiring, guiding, and shaping young minds with your love and human touch.
