Teaching Approach,
Methods and Techniques

Presented by Ayesha and Sidra
Approach Method Technique
Approach
• It is a set of principles, beliefs, or ideas about the nature
of learning which is translated into the classroom.
• An approach is treating something in a certain way.
• It is our own personal philosophy
• The act of getting close to way path or road. one’s viewpoint
toward teaching or refers to what one believes in, regarding
teaching, upon which teaching behaviors are based.
• TEACHER-CENTERED APPROACH
The teacher is perceived to be the only reliable source of
information in contrast to the learner-centered approach.
• LEARNER-CENTERED APPROACH
In which it is belief that the learner is also an important
resource because he/she too knows something and is therefore
capable of sharing something.
• INTERACTIVE APPROACH
In this approach, an interactive classroom will have more
student talk and less teacher talk. Students are given the
opportunity to interact with teacher and with other students.
• CONSTRUCTIVIST APPROACH
The students are expected to construct knowledge and
meaning out for what they are taught by connecting them to
prior experience.
• DIRECT TEACHING APPROACH
The teacher directly tells or shows or demonstrates what is to be
taught.
• INDIRECT,GUIDED APPROACH
The teacher guides the learner to discover things for
himself/herself. The teacher facilitates the learning process by
allowing the learner to be engaged in the learning process with
his/her guidance.
• SUBJECT MATTER-CENTERED APPROACH
Subject matter gains primacy over that of the learner.
• INTEGRATED APPROACH
It makes the teacher connects what he/she teaches to other
lessons of the same subject or connects his/her lessons with
other subjects thus making his/her approach interdisciplinary
and multidisciplinary.
• INDIVIDUALISTIC APPROACH
It wants the individual students to work by themselves.
• COLLABORATIVE APPROACH
It will welcome group work, teamwork, partnerships, and group
discussion
What is Method
• A method is a description of the way that information or
behavior is carried forward or consolidated during the
instructional process
• Method is an overall plan or is a way of something is done no
part of which contradicts, and all of which is based upon, the
selected approach
• It is a systematic way of doing something. It implies an orderly
logical arrangement of steps. It is more procedural.
Types of method
• Direct method
• Inductive Method
• Deductive Method
Direct Method
1. The strategy is teacher-directed.
2. The emphasis is on the teaching of skill. Each step must be
mastered, hence the students gain “how” rather than “what”. It is
termed procedural knowledge.
3. Taught in a step-by-step fashion, it ensures the learning of the
entire procedure with no step missed.
4. It include Lesson objectives that can be measured accurately.
5. This is a form of learning through imitation, sometimes
termed “behavioral modeling”.
6. This can also be used to teach facts, principles, and laws.
7. Performance-based subjects such as Science, Mathematics,
Music and Physical Education are taught by this technique.
To employ the methodology in teaching skill/s, follow these steps:
a) Provide the rationale,
b) Demonstrate the skill,
c) Provide guided practice until mastery,
d) Check for understanding and provide feedback,
e) Provide extended practice and transfer
f) Assess learning at the end.
Examples
• Sample Lessons with Step-By-Step Tasks
• Steps of Maslow Hierarchy
• Steps in preparing a meal
• Writing a letter
• Solving Math problems
Advantages
• Step by Step learning
• This method can be usefully employed from the lowest to the
highest learning skill or class.
• The teacher must also ensure that the students already
possess the prerequisite knowledge.
• It easier for teachers to create assessment tests of high
validity and high reliability
Disadvantages
• The structure of direct teaching can be rigid enough to hinder
the creativity of the teacher.
• There is very little room to improvise because this method
follows a step-by-step procedure.
• Direct teaching, if utilized by unprepared teachers, can be
disastrous.
• Student is passive most of the time.
Deductive method
• Teacher-dominated approach
• It begins with the abstract rule, generalization, principle and ends
with specific examples and concrete details
• Cover a wider scope of subject matter
• Learning is passive process, the learners do not take part in the
generation of conclusion or generalization
• Drill or exercises come after the explanation of the rule or principle
Examples
• Teacher will present a map of the Philippines. Then study the

map with them.
• Teacher Explain the rule first: To add similar fractions just add
the numerators then copy the denominator.
Advantages
• Wider scope of subject matter because the instruction is

direct by stating at once the rule or the principle at the
beginning of the class.
• Teacher do not have to worry on what questions to ask for

learners to generalization or conclusion.
Disadvantages
• Passive learning. Less involvement on part of the learners
• The learners do not take part in the generation of conclusion or
generalization.
• Learners’ involvement will be drill or exercises that come after
the explanation of the rule or principle
• Lesson appears uninteresting at first. Teacher begin the lesson
with the abstract with what the learners do not know
Inductive method
• It begins with specific details, concrete data and examples and ends
with an abstract
• Learners are more engaged in the teaching-learning process
• Learning becomes more interesting at the outset because we begin
with the experiences of our students. Begin with what they know.
• It helps the development of our learners’ higher order thinking skills.
To see patterns and analyze the same in order to arrive at
generalizations requires analytical thinking.
• It requires more time.
• Teacher serve as guide or facilitator.
• Teaching first provide examples, then have students practice
and figure out the rule themselves
Examples
• Ask students to find out words starting with Letter ‘‘A’’
• Making presentation or projects
Advantages
• The learners are more engaged in teaching-learning process.
The learners formulate the generalization or rule.
• Learning becomes more interesting at the outset because
teachers begin with the experiences of the students. Teachers
begin with what they know.
• It helps the development of the learners’ higher order thinking
skills.
Disadvantages
• It requires more time and so less subject matter will be
covered. Teacher needs much time to lead students to the
formulation of generalizations.
• It demands expert facilitating skills on part of the teacher.
Teacher got to ask the right questions, organize answers and
comments to pave the way to the derivation of
generalizations/principles
which method is more teacher-directed?
- which one engages more the learners in conceptual
understanding?
- which demands more teacher’s skillful questioning?
Technique
A technique is implementation-that which actually takes place
in a class room.it is a particular trick, procedure to
accomplish an immediate objective.it must be consistent with
the method and harmony with approach as well
• A technique is a detailed list of rules or a guideline for any
(teaching) activity.
• It is based on the description of steps, or a set of do's and
don’ts, and can often be linked to a method or strategy.
• Technique is a procedure or skill for completing a specific a
specific task. This would be used for predictable events
Mind mapping: you apply guidelines for devising content in a
holistic way. This is a technique that can be used in an individual
working situation, in a group work, or by the teacher as a means
of demonstrating something.
Brainstorming: is a group centered interaction method. The

brainstorming technique describes a way of collecting ideas or
information in a creative and uninhibited way
Examples
• System of rewards and punishments
• If class room become distracted a teacher may use the
technique of silent reading
• A quick physical activity to distract or divert their attention
CONCLUSION
• Approach determines method, in turn method determine
technique.
• The arrangement is hierarchical. The Organizational key is the
technique carry out a method which is consistent with an
approach
