Teaching Strategies Presentation

1. INTERACTIVE TEACHING
STRATEGIES

2. Definition of a Teaching strategy
Before engaging on different types of teaching strategies,
it is important to understand what is a teaching strategy
According to Rivera (2017), a Teaching strategy refers
to the long-term plan of action that is designed to
achieve a particular goal.
Teaching strategies refer to an overall or general design
of how the lesson will be executed or delivered. It can
be a substitute to methodology (Intero: 2015).

3. Factors to be considered when choosing
a Teaching strategy
 According to Rivera (2017), a teacher cannot just choose a strategy, but
he/she must consider the following:
 Instructional objectives
 The nature of subject matter
 The learners
 The teachers
 School policies

4. The
TOP 10 Teaching
Strategies

5.  According to killian (2015), As a teacher you must
clarify what you want your learners to know and be
able to do by the end of each lesson.
 I believe that this is very significant in every
methodology as it outlines the schemata(focus) of
the lesson.
 In a history lesson, it is important for the teacher to
outline the specific aims as a topic can consist of
different outcomes when it is analysed.
 For example, in a history lesson when teaching your
learners about the historical event (Soweto uprising),
you will not be teaching your learners a story: but you
will be teaching them so that they outline the
difference in quality education received by the
learners during apartheid and the quality education
received by them now.
#1 SPECIFIC
OUTCOMES

6.  In this way learners will be able
to recognize change and the
improvement that has taken
place in the education system
since 1994.
 It also helps the teacher to be
able to plan classroom
activities(formative) and
summative assessments
 I think having lesson
outcomes also create a sense
of focus and guides the
teacher on which teaching
strategies to use and learning
styles to adopt

7.  This teaching strategy
also helps a lot in
determining whether the
outcomes set for the
lesson were achieved or
not.
 It also makes the
learners to be engaged
and answer activities set
to test if the learning
process was successful
or not.

8.  According to Killian, for a lesson to be good,
it must be started through the “Show and Tell”
Teaching strategy.
 I personally think this is very important for
accommodation of visual and auditory learners.
 It will keep them focused and make them grasp
content easily.
#2 Show and
Tell

9.  In a History Methodology lesson, it is very important to
use visuals as some events occurred during the 1800’s
and there has been of historical changes after them.
 Hence, it is important to use visual aids when teaching
learners of the late 21st century so they will get an idea
of what was happening during those times.
 For instance, when teaching about Soweto Uprising,
you can show learners documentaries about Soweto
Uprising and the images that were taken and related to
the Historical event. This will help them have a better
understanding of the historical events taught.

10.  According to Killian, using Questions to check
understanding of the content is very important .
 The teacher must ask Questions to the whole class and
expect all students to think of answers.
 The teacher must select a random student and ask
other learners to show their understanding by
commenting.
 In a history lesson, this can be done when discussing
the uniqueness of South Africa’s presidents.
 The teacher can go as far as asking learners to
comment on their leadership styles.
#3 Questions to
show
understanding

13. #4 Graphical
Summaries &
Mind maps
 At the end of the lesson, the teacher must create
Graphical summaries like concept Maps to show inter-
relationship between different parts of what the learners
have learned.
 I think, in this case the teacher can give learners a task
of creating Graphical summaries to check if learning has
taken place and whether the learning outcomes were
achieved or not.
 In History, learners can draw a mind map outlining the
relationships between all Empires that were formed
during the 1800.
 This will make them outline the similarities in these
empires

14. Using a mind map to
summarize a theme and
sub-themes

15. #5 Authentic
Tasks
This teaching is usually implemented at the end of the learning
process.
At this point, learners must be given an opportunity to practice and
apply what they have been taught.
They must be able to function on their own and show independency.
In a history Methodology class, learners can be given a survey with
open- ended questions where they will interview older people on
their families based on how they were taught in schools ( their
education system)
This way learners will be aware of how change have taken place in
the Education system

16. Interactive teaching
Strategies
 According to my understanding,
Interactive teaching strategies refers to
strategies that mainly focus on the
interaction between teachers and
learners.
 These interactive strategies must be
blended with learning styles to ensure
that the learning process sis
successful.

17. Different Learning styles
 Learning styles
blended must
accommodate the
following learners:
 Auditory learners:
These are the leaners
who remember the
content through voices,
sounds and music.

18. Learning styles
cont.
 Visual Learners- Remember the
content through images, shapes
and colours
 Kinaesthetic Learners- Learners
who remember the content by
doing, moving and touching
(Guro:2013)

19.  The teacher must choose a strategy that will allow
learning to be an active process.
 Learners must be able to actively engage in learning
activities.
 All senses must be involved in learning to make
learning better. The teaching methodology must use
more visual aids than audio aids
 For learning to be meaningful it must be connected to
student’s everyday life (Flores:2014)
Guidelines for
selecting
teaching
strategies

20. Selecting a Teaching strategies and learning styles that will
accommodate the individual learning needs of every learner is very
important. This ensures that learning process Is successful and
learning outcomes are achieved.
