front of class through the use of demonstration & visual aids.
Teacher delivers lecture without involving students in the
process.
• Indirect (Guided) Method:
Indirect method Exploratory method
• Indirect approach focuses on inquiry learning & use of students
ideas, it provokes their thinking, imagination & thought organizing
skills e.g, problem solving strategies

• In this approach, teacher plays a role of facilitator & thought


synthesizer. Teacher gives the student an active role in the learning
process.
• Research based/ Problem based Approach:
This form of teaching & learning focuses on the joint acquisition
of new knowledge by teacher & student, by doing research in any field
of interest. Teacher discuss about possibilities & difficulties in the class,
face by the students while doing research about any topic.

This method encouraging students to ask questions and investigate


their own ideas, it helps improve their problem solving skills as well as
gain deeper understanding of academic concepts.
Personality Driven Approach:

various strategies, which in return increase their efficiency & bring positive change
in learner’s personality. Teacher provides intrinsic motivation to students in
achieving their academic goals.

potentials. To achieve the fundamental goal of education, it is
important to realize one’s abilities. If any student has focus &
confidence, teacher encourages his potential in a productive way and
show him the right path. This approach promotes creativity, emotional
stability & shared vision.

participation in specific learning task. The goal of meta cognition is to help

students gain conscious awareness of the task given to him. It fosters forethought

and self-reflection. By using this method teacher plan, monitor and assess

learner’s understanding and performance and how he use appropriate strategies

• Distributed Practice: Implementing a schedule of practice that spreads
out study activities over time
• Elaborative Interrogation: Generating an explanation for why a fact or
concept is true
• Self- explanation: Explaining how new information is related to known
information or explaining steps taken during problem solving
• Interleaved Practice: Implementing a schedule of practice that mixes
different kinds of problem, or a schedule of study that mixes different
kinds of material, within a single study session
• Summarization: It is a vital skill for students to learn. Identify the main
idea & most important facts, than writing a brief overview that
includes only those key ideas & details
• Rereading: Restudying text material again after an initial reading. The
