TEACHING
• Teacher learns while

Teaching equips
• Cognitive domain with knowledge and
psychomotor domain with feelings and interest.
• Both these domains affect the affective domain to
do or practice.
• If this practicing of teaching is done on regular
basis with positive feeling ,liking for the subject ,
subject will be internally absorbed and retained
(internalization)
• Whenever the it is needed, the cognitive domain
provides or recalls the stored facts and concepts
automatically( automatism)
• Then one can profess about the subject.
Who is a Professor?
• Once the affective domain is enriched with
knowledge and positive attitude
Internalization of the subject ( subject will be

unwanted interruptions.
Stream of thoughts

• Summarize your lecture

learning objectives you have chosen.
• Just repeat your learning objectives giving
stress on main points.
• Please note that summarization is not
evaluation or assessment of impact of your
lecture. It completes just delivery of lecture,
but does not measure the impact of lecture on
the audience.

• One sided (by teacher
himself)
• Two sided (teacher and
student)
• third party assessment
Evaluation

understanding of the learning
objectives of the lecture as criteria.
• Or
• Basing on the basics of any lecture
like the content, quality of
presentation etc
Learning objectives score
• You can give points to components of lecture and
grade yourself or get it done by the student or
third party.
• Example: 10 marks score
• 1 mark each for Set induction, Organizing lesson,
Reinforcement, Stimulation, Vocal clarity,
Expressions , Relevance, Sequence,
Preparation of slides, Usefulness to the student,

Excellent lecture= scored 8-10 points; good


lecture=6-8 points; average lecture=4-6
points; poor lecture=<4 points
• Worthy points to
remember regarding
teaching
Teaching
• Teaching is an art (not
just reading from a
book and reproducing
in the class room).
Teaching dimensions
• Teacher development is
mutual with the student
development and vice
versa.
Managing the students
Don’t throw the blame on the
students for your failure to create an
impact with your lecture.
Students are immature, less skilled,
emotional and You are mature, more
skilled and composed.
Best way to control the students is by
giving them best lectures.
