Instructional Planning of Mathematics Teachers
Instructional Planning of Mathematics Teachers
Knowing the learning capacity of each students is one of the factor for an
effective implementation of instructional planning. If the teacher is already familiar with
the students, he could be able to device different activities that will cater their
differences. The availability of instructional materials also contributes for the success of
an instructional plan. We all know that teachers at all levels utilize a variety of
instructional materials such as textbooks, presentations and handouts to enhance the
quality of their lessons. The quality of those materials directly impacts the quality of
teaching. Knowing how to find the best instructional materials is a valuable skill for a
teacher to have. If all the materials are already made available, teachers won’t have any
problem with the planned activities that are in need of different instructional materials.
Instructional planning should always consider not only the curriculum but also the
individual learner’s need and differences. With planning, teacher will be able to device
sort of learning activities or assignments that are most appropriate for the students
being served. Planning for and responding to variances among learners creates the
best learning experience possible. In addition, instructional planning will make learning
a long-term, learner-centered process. Students will also be taught for transfer.
Students will learn to transfer knowledge and skills from one subject to another. It will
make lessons more relevant and help students retain what they've learned. The
students will also be guided with the flow of the course if the teacher provides the
outline of the subject matter beforehand.
