The Problem and
its Background
The Effects of Teaching Style on the
Academic Performance of
Grade – 9 Students in
Liceo de Victoria
School Year 2017 – 2018
Rationale
This study will reveal the different
variables and its effect with the student’s
academic performance. This study seeks to
find out if the teaching style can affect the
academic performance of the respondents.
Theoretical Framework
There are many different approaches and theories on
teaching style. Most agree that for all pupils to have an
equal experience in education, teachers must adapt their
teaching styles so that everyone benefits within the
classrooms.
R.C Mishra (2007) has a different theory of teaching
styles. She argues that there are three styles of teaching;
the discipline centered, instructor centered and the
student centered, although there are many more different
teaching styles and theories suggested by the different
authors.
Discipline centered
This style of teaching is very structed, not allowing
for flexibility for what is taught and when it is taught.
This style of teaching may be completely centered
around the national curriculum, without deviating from
it. This style of teaching is as ineffective as it is
unpractical, as teaching must allow for flexibility to
ensure that all pupils are learning and achieving in
school.
Instructor centered
This style of teaching focuses on the teacher as being the
main source of knowledge for pupils. Everything that pupils
learn may come from the teacher, without obtaining knowledge
and information from other sources. Much like discipline
centered style of teaching, the instructor centered style is very
limited and does not help learners develop, as pupils do not
have to seek ways finding out information themselves, but
simply ask the teacher. It is also very limited as the teacher
cannot be expected to be able to answer all of the questions the
pupil may have, and may have limited knowledge in certain areas
of the curriculum.
Learner centered
This style is the students centered style of teaching. This style
is much more learner centered and is very much focused on the
cognitive development of students. Through this teaching style,
pupils are encouraged to learn through inquiry, and develop their
own thinking skills knowledge and solve problems. Unlike the
other two style suggested by Mishra, the student centered style
of teaching also focuses more on the needs of the individual
learners. This style of teaching allows for pupils learn in different
ways as the teacher adapts their teaching style to suite all
learners, of all abilities.
However, the three teaching styles
suggested by Mishra are limited as they do
not consider the variations between
different classrooms and schools. There are
many different teaching styles, all of which
must be focused on what best suites the
learner. (Association of Teachers and
Lecture, 2011)
In comparison, authoritative style of
teaching is actually the same as the
disciplined centered and instructor centered
the only difference of these two style is how
it works inside the classroom but the
primary source of knowledge is only the
teacher and the authority is on-hand of her.
The learner centered is more about
hybrid style. Because in this style of
teaching the students find their own way to
learn one thing and develops critical
thinking while the meaning of hybrid is
learning through use of technology and
seeking to learn another thing from their
own technique.
