Figure 1. Systematized Instruction

Systematic Approach to Teaching

As depicted in the chart, the focus of systematic instruction is the learner. Instruction
begins with the definition of instructional objectives that consider the learners’ needs, interests
and readiness.
On the basis of these objectives, the teacher selects the appropriate teaching methods to be used
and, in turn, based on the teaching method selected, chooses also the appropriate learning experiences and
appropriate materials, equipment and facilities.

The use of learning materials, equipment and facilities necessitates assigning the appropriate
personnel to assist the teacher and defining the role of any personnel involved in the preparation, setting
and returning of these learning resources.

The effective use of learning resources is dependent on the expertise of the teacher, the
motivation level or the responsiveness, and the involvement of the learners in the learning process.
With the instructional objective in mind, the teacher implements planned instruction with the use
of the selected teaching method, learning activities, and the learning materials with the help of other
personnel whose role has been defined by the teacher.
Will the teacher use direct or indirect instruction? Will he teach using the deductive or inductive
method? It depends on his/her instructional objective, nature of the subject matter, readiness of students
and the facilitating skills of the teacher himself/herself.

Examples of learning activities that the teacher can choose from, depending on his/her
instructional objective, nature of the lesson content, readiness of the students, are
reading,
writing,
interviewing,
reporting or doing presentation,
discussing,
thinking,
reflecting,
dramatizing,
visualizing,
creating,
judging,
and evaluating

Some examples of learning resources for instructional use are


Textbooks,
Workbooks,
Programmed materials,
Computer,
Television programs,
Video clips,
Pictures,
Slides and transparencies,
Maps,
Charts,
Cartoons,
Posters,
Models,
Real objects
And the like.

After the instruction, teacher evaluates the outcome of instruction. From the evaluation results,
teacher comes to know if the instructional objective was attained. If the instructional objective was
attained, teacher proceeds to the next lesson going through the same cycle once more.

If the instructional objective was not attained, then teacher diagnoses what was not learned and
finds out why it was not learned in order to introduce a remedial measure for improved student
performance and attainment of instructional objective. This way no learners will be left behind.

The systems approach views the entire educational system program as a system of closely
interrelated parts. It is an orchestrated learning pattern with all parts harmoniously integrated into the
whole: the school, the teacher, the students, the objectives, the media, the materials, and the assessment
tools and procedures.

The phases or elements are connected to one another. If one element or one phase of the
instructional process fails, the outcome which is learning is adversely affected. The attainment of the
learning objective is dependent on the synergy of all elements and of all actors involved in the process.
The purpose of a system instructional design is “to ensure orderly relationships and interaction of
human, technical, and environmental resources to fulfill the goals which have been established for
instruction” (Brown,1969).
