MAKE IT SIMPLE!

There are so many technical terms in pedagogy, the art and science of teaching, it makes your mind spin... so I decided to make this post to make it simple.

First, the umbrella term "approach" refers to 5 approaches: inductive, deductive, thematic, intergrative and eclectic. You know what these mean so let me move on...

The next term is "strategy" which refres to 4 strategies: teacher centered, student centered, task centered and resource centered.

Then we come to : "methodology and techniques" which refers to : story telling, demonstrations, problem solving ( you can use the Theory Of Contraints ), discussion and brainstorming.

Well that is not that confusing ya?

I suggest you make a little diagram or picture to help you to remember...Does anyone want to put this into a picture of a bird ( my favourite memory aid and symbol...) and post it in your blog???
