UNIFIED

APPROACH

IS A MEANS OF TREATING
RELATIONSHIPS THAT EXIST AMONG THE
SIGNIFICANT COMPONENTS MAKING UP
A GIVEN BODY OF KNOWLEDGE.
IT IS A THOROUGH PROCESS OF
WEAVING AND INTEGRATING TOPICS
INTO A GENERAL FRAMEWORK OR
CONCEPTUAL SCHEME.

PURPOSE:

to enhance the students

learning by making them
view things in their
entirety or totality.

THE FEATURES OF THIS

APPROACH

It

is highly cognitive

 It

leads students
toward insightful
and meaningful
learning

THE GUIDELINES
IN
UTILIZING THE
UNIFIED APPROACH

Restructure the presentation

of the subject matter to
show
the
needed
interrelationships.

 Recall

the previous
lesson and link it up
with the present one.

 Include

points only

relevant

 Start

with the most

fundamental concepts in
presenting
the
relationships.

 It

is holistic in
treatment

 It

requires the
teacher to present
his subject matter
in an entirely
different manner.

PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION

Is an instruction in
which the self-pacing
method has a rightful
place

It is a system of teaching and

learning within which the subject
matter is broken down into small,
discrete steps and carefully
organized into a logical sequence
in which it can be learned readily
by the students (MORRIS BIGGE,
1982)

It is an auto-instructional
approach to teaching
which is changing the role
of the classroom teacher
(BARRY HARLEY, 1973).

HARLEYSMETHOD ARE
DESCRIBED AS FOLLOWS:

PROGRAMMING ITSELF IS THE WRITING OF

SEQUESTIAL STEPS STRUCTURED SO AS TO
BRING ABOUT A LEARNING EXPERIENCE.

FORMS OF RESPONSES:

PROGRAMMED MATERIALS ARE

SELF- INSTRUCTIONAL

IT IS HIGHLY INDIVIDUALIZED

IT REQUIRES THE SO-CALLED

CRITERION-REFERENCED TYPE
OF EVALUATION AND NOT THE
NORM-REFERENCED TYPE.

IT REQUIRES THE TEACHER TO

PLAY THREE DISTINCT RULES
IN
TODAYS
SCHOOLDIRECTOR, ANALYST, AND
TUTOR.

IT IS NOT A COMPLETE
INSTRUCTION BY ITSELF

PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION
REQUIRES A LOT OF
MATERIALS.
