Educational Theory

In preparing appropriate instructional materials, the use of all the five senses is very
significant. They use hearing through audio aids like the cassette recorder and voice recorder, ,
sights through visual aids like charts and posters, websites and printed sources like handouts and
books, touch through resources like specimens and models, and also, to a lesser extent, taste and
smell, for example, in cookery.

Also more than one sense can be combined in a visual aid such as film, tape-slide
presentation, or a web-based presentation which combines both hearing and sight. It is important
to remember thatlearning materials should be about creating multimedia-giving students the best
possible opportunity to learn using a range of tools and techniques (Reece & Walker 2003)

There are also guiding principles in using instructional materials according to Corpuz &
Salandanan (2013)
1. All instructional materials are aids to instruction . They do not replace the teacher.
