Peer Instruction[edit]
Main article: Peer instruction
Developed by Eric Mazur, peer instruction is a teaching method designed to improve
the lecture. It includes both pre-class and in-class workflows. The in-class workflow
intersperses teacher presentations with conceptual questions, called Concept Tests.
These are designed to expose common student misconceptions in understanding the
material, and lead to student discussion then reteaching if required.[8]
Explaining[edit]
While under-researched, both student and teacher explanations remain one of the most
utilized teaching methods in teacher practice. Explaining has many sub-categories
including the use of analogies to build conceptual understanding.[9] Some modes of
explaining include the ‘thinking together’ style where teachers connect student ideas to
scientific models. There are also more narrative styles using examples, and learner
explanations which require students to give an explanation of the concept to be learned
allowing the teacher to give precise feedback on the quality of the explanation. [10]
Demonstrating[edit]
Main article: Demonstration (teaching)
Demonstrating, which is also called the coaching style or the Lecture-cum-
Demonstration method,[11] is the process of teaching through examples
or experiments.[12] The framework mixes the instructional strategies of information
imparting and showing how.[11] For example, a science teacher may teach an idea by
experimenting with students. A demonstration may be used to prove a fact through a
combination of visual evidence and associated reasoning.
Demonstrations are similar to written storytelling and examples in that they allow
students to personally relate to the presented information. Memorization of a list of facts
is a detached and impersonal experience, whereas the same information, conveyed
through demonstration, becomes personally relatable. Demonstrations help to raise
student interest and reinforce memory retention because they provide connections
between facts and real-world applications of those facts. Lectures, on the other hand,
are often geared more towards factual presentation than connective learning.[13]
One of the advantages of the demonstration method involves the capability to include
different formats and instruction materials to make the learning process
engaging.[14] This leads to the activation of several of the learners' senses, creating more
learning opportunities.[15] The approach is also beneficial on the part of the teacher
because it is adaptable to both group and individual teaching.[16] While demonstration
teaching, however, can be effective in teaching Math, Science, and Art, it can prove
ineffective in a classroom setting that calls for the accommodation of the learners'
individual needs.[12]
Collaborating[edit]
Main article: Collaboration
Collaboration allows student to actively participate in the learning process by talking
with each other and listening to others opinions. Collaboration establishes a personal
connection between students and the topic of study and it helps students think in a less
personally biased way. Group projects and discussions are examples of this teaching
method. Teachers may employ collaboration to assess student's abilities to work as a
team, leadership skills, or presentation abilities.[17]
Some examples of collaborative learning tips and strategies for teachers are; to build
trust, establish group interactions, keeps in mind the critics, include different types of
learning, use real-world problems, consider assessment, create a pre-test, and post-test,
use different strategies, help students use inquiry and use technology for easier learning.
Classroom discussion[edit]
The most common type of collaborative method of teaching in a class is classroom
discussion. It is also a democratic way of handling a class, where each student is given
equal opportunity to interact and put forth their views. A discussion taking place in a
classroom can be either facilitated by a teacher or by a student. A discussion could also
follow a presentation or a demonstration. Class discussions can enhance student
understanding, add context to academic content, broaden student perspectives,
highlight opposing viewpoints, reinforce knowledge, build confidence, and support
community in learning. The opportunities for meaningful and engaging in-class
discussion may vary widely, depending on the subject matter and format of the course.
Motivations for holding planned classroom discussion, however, remain consistent. [19] An
effective classroom discussion can be achieved by probing more questions among the
students, paraphrasing the information received, using questions to develop critical
thinking with questions like "Can we take this one step further?;" "What solutions do you
think might solve this problem?;" "How does this relate to what we have learned
about..?;" "What are the differences between ... ?;" "How does this relate to your own
experience?;" "What do you think causes .... ?;" "What are the implications of .... ?"[20]
Debriefing[edit]
Main article: Debriefing
The term "debriefing" refers to conversational sessions that revolve around the sharing
and examining of information after a specific event has taken place. Depending on the
situation, debriefing can serve a variety of purposes.[24] It takes into consideration the
experiences and facilitates reflection and feedback. Debriefing may involve feedback to
the students or among the students, but this is not the intent. The intent is to allow the
students to "thaw" and to judge their experience and progress toward change or
transformation. The intent is to help them come to terms with their experience. This
process involves a cognizance of cycle that students may have to be guided to
completely debrief. Teachers should not be overly critical of relapses in behaviour.
Once the experience is completely integrated, the students will exit this cycle and get on
with the next.[20]
Questioning[edit]
Questioning is one of the oldest documented teaching methods, and can be used by
teachers in a variety of ways for a variety of purposes including, checking for
understanding, clarifying terms, exposing misconceptions, and gathering evidence of
learning to inform subsequent instructional decisions.[26]
Socratic questioning[edit]
Named after Socrates, socratic questioning is described by his pupil Plato as a form of
questioning where the teacher probes underlying misconceptions to lead students
towards deeper understanding.
Cold calling[edit]
Cold calling is a teaching methodology based around the teacher asking questions to
students without letting the students know beforehand who will be called upon to
answer by the teacher. Cold calling aims to increase inclusion in the
classroom[27] and active learning as well as student engagement and
participation.[28] Cold calling in education is distinct from cold-calling in sales which is a
form of business solicitation. Cold calling as a teaching methodology has been linked to
increased student participation,[29] increased student voluntary participation,[30] increased
student engagement, increased student in class gender equity[31] and no decrease in
student comfort levels in class.[32] There is some evidence that the effectiveness of cold
calling as teaching method is connected to the use of covert retrieval practice.[33]
Feedback[edit]
See also: Corrective feedback
Feedback is targeted information given to students about their current performance
relative to their desired learning goals.[34] It should aim to (and be capable of producing)
improvement in students’ learning, as well as being bidirectional by giving teachers
feedback on student performance which in turn helps teachers plan the next steps in
learning.[35] Feedback in its various forms can be a potent teaching method with
potentially large impacts on student achievement.[36] It can also have some negative side
effects under certain conditions.[37]
In his literary work The Republic, Plato described a system of instruction that he felt
would lead to an ideal state. In his dialogues, Plato described the Socratic method, a
form of inquiry and debate intended to stimulate critical thinking and illuminate ideas.
It has been the intent of many educators since, such as the Roman educator Quintilian,
to find specific, interesting ways to encourage students to use their intelligence and to
help them to learn.
Medieval education[edit]
Comenius, in Bohemia, wanted all children to learn. In his The World in Pictures, he
created an illustrated textbook of things children would be familiar with in everyday life
and used it to teach children. Rabelais described how the student Gargantua learned
about the world, and what is in it.
19th century[edit]
The Prussian education system was a system of mandatory education dating to the
early 19th century. Parts of the Prussian education system have served as models for
the education systems in a number of other countries, including Japan and the United
States. The Prussian model required classroom management skills to be incorporated
into the teaching process.[40]
The University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge in England developed their
distinctive method of teaching, the tutorial system, in the 19th century.[41] This involves
very small groups, from one to three students, meeting on a regular basis with tutors
(originally college fellows, and now also doctoral students and post-docs) to discuss and
debate pre-prepared work (either essays or problems).[42][43] This is the central teaching
method of these universities in both arts and science subjects,[44] and has been
compared to the Socratic method.[45][46]
Experimental pedagogy[edit]
The main credit for the constitution of experimental pedagogy as a special direction and
the development of its theoretical foundations belongs to two German
pedagogues, Ernst Meumann[47] and Wilhelm August Lay,[48] who are also considered the
founders of experimental pedagogy. There are also Alfred Binet and Théodore Simon in
France, Joseph Mayer Rice, Edward Thorndike and G. Stanley Hall in
America, Édouard Claparède[49] and Robert Dottrens in Switzerland, Alexander
Petrovich Nechaev in Russia, etc.[50]
