Meaning of Approach, Methods and Techniques
Click to edit Master title style
• Approach- is a set of assumptions that define beliefs and
theories about the nature of the learner and the process of
learning.
• Method- is an overall for systematic presentation of a lesson
based upon a selected approach (Brown, 1994). Some authors
call it design.
• Techniques – are the specific activities manifested in the
classroom that are consistent with a method and therefore in
harmony with an approach as well (Brown,1994). Technique is
referred to also a task or activity.

referred as Master titleand
the “show style
tell” method. The teacher simply
shows to the students how a thing is done and explains as
he/she demonstrates. For an effective demonstration, it is
necessary that the teacher mentions the do’s and don’ts of the
process for emphasis and clarity. It is important that as a
teacher demonstrates a process, he/she cautions students on
steps of a skill where students are often mistaken or which are
most often missed.

2.Student demonstrates with scaffolding from teacher – “Let’s
do it together”.
3.When student can do the process by himself/herself, student
demonstrates the skill or process. “Do a I watch”.
4.Teacher gives more opportunity for practice for skill mastery.
5.Teacher assess to determine skill mastery by all students.

Hands on Learning – more formally known as experiential
Click to edit Master title style
education, reflects a teaching philosophy that promotes learning
by doing. The strategy allows children to practice guided tactile
learning in which they absorb knowledge not only by listening, but
by experiencing.
Generally speaking, hands-on learning is learning through
experience. Students handle the materials, equipment, and
instruments in real time and manipulate it. It is obtaining the skills,
knowledge, and competencies that are necessary.

7
 Benefits of Hands-on Learning
Click to edit Master title style
>>> It’s more fun and engaging – children can develop skills much
faster when they’re having fun.
>>> Students retain more – both the left and right sides of the brain
are more effectively engaged by hands-on learning.
>>> Improving fine motor skills – children who engage in hands-on
activities have stronger hand muscles, more accuracy, and a greater
understanding of practical life skills.
>>> Allows students to be more creative – creativity is a muscle. It has
to be consistently trained, much like other muscles, otherwise being
creative will get harder and tougher.

• Allowing the students to produce some products on their own.

• Giving students low-stakes quizzes

Cooperative Learning – sometimes called small-group
Click to edit
learning, is anMaster title style
instructional strategy in which small groups of
students work together on a common task.
The ownership of teaching and learning is shared by group of
students, and is no longer the sole responsibility of the
teacher. The authority of setting goals, assessing learning,
and facilitating learning is shared by all.

10
Some challenges of using cooperative learning include
Click to edit Master title style
releasing the control of learning, managing noise level,
resolving conflicts, and assessing student learning.

Carefully structured activities can help students learn the

skills to work together successfully, and structured
discussion and reflection on group process can help avoid
some problems.
