Es and Disadvantages of Using Instructional Material 2b
Review:
• Instructional Materials serve as the channel between the teacher and the
students in delivering instructions; and
Traditional - Any other physical or written materials that are used to teach or
guide students in a traditional classroom setting. These materials are often
designed to provide information, explanations, and examples to help students
understand and learn the content being taught. They can be used by teachers to
supplement their lessons, provide additional practice or reinforcement, or as
reference materials for students to study from. Traditional instructional
materials are typically designed to be used in conjunction with face-to-face
instruction and often follow a linear or sequential structure.
Non-traditional
Instructional materials play a crucial role in education, and they come with their
own set of advantages and disadvantages:
-Students are able to learn at their own pace, which is particularly helpful for
those with learning disabilities
-Students can easily access the information they need, even if it's outside of
school hours
-The materials are accessible from anywhere in the world, so students can work
on their homework when they're at home or travelling.
-It can be difficult for some students to stay focused on their work if they get
distracted by other things happening around them.
-It may be difficult for students to find a quiet place to do their work, as many
students have limited access to quiet places at home or school.

Advantages:
For example, using diagrams and charts to explain a scientific process can make
it more accessible to students.
Visual Aid: Visual aids such as charts, graphs, and multimedia presentations can
engage learners and cater to different learning styles. For instance, a history
teacher can use maps and timelines to illustrate historical events.
Self-Paced Learning: Instructional materials can support self-paced learning,
allowing students to review and revisit content at their own pace. Online
tutorials and textbooks are good examples of this.
Disadvantages:
Inflexibility: Pre-designed materials may not suit the specific needs of every
learner or classroom. They may not cater to diverse learning styles or
accommodate special educational requirements.
