LESSON 3: TEACHING STRATEGIES

THINGS WE CAN DO TO SOLVE PROBLEMS WITH TEACHING


  • SCAFFOLDING
Variety of instructional techniques used to move students progressively toward stronger understanding and greater independence in the learning process. The term itself offers the relevant descriptive metaphor: teachers provide successive levels of temporary support that help students reach higher levels of comprehension and skill acquisition that they would not be able to achieve without assistance.

Scaffolding is widely considered to be an essential element of effective teaching, and all teachers certainly use various forms of instructional scaffolding in their teaching.  

  •      Show and tell
  •      Tap into prior knowledge
  •      Give time to talk
  •      Pre-teach vocabulary
  •      Use visual aids
  •      Pause, ask questions, pause, review

  • TEACHING STRATEGIES
Various instructional activities we will use to engage students with the material and enable them to meet the objectives. 
  • Active learning
  • Cooperative learning
  • Critican thinking
  • Discussion strategies
  • Games, simulations
  • Humor
  • Guided learning
  • Learning communities
  • Mobile learning
  • Problem-based learning

  • VYGOTSGY: ZONE OF PROXIMAL DEVELOPMENT
It is the difference between what a learner can do without help and what he or she can do with help.
Vygotsky stated that a child follows an adult's example and gradually develops the ability to do certain tasks without help.Vygotsky and some other educators believe that the role of education is to give children experiences that are within their zones of proximal development, thereby encouraging and advancing their individual learning.
