ACTIVITY-BASED TEACHING STRATEGIES Flashcards
Is based on the premise that learners work together and are responsible for not only in their own learning but also for the learning of other group
members.
Cooperative Learning
It involves structuring small groups of learning goals
Cooperative Learning
Learners are aware that they are responsible for the learning of all group
members.
Cooperative Learning
3 Types of Cooperative Learning
- FORMAL GROUPS
- INFORMAL GROUPS
- BASE GROUPS
A type of cooperative learning aiming
to complete a specific learning task consisting of concepts or skills.
FORMAL GROUPS
Type of Cooperative Learning
Length of Existence: One class to many
weeks
Formal Groups
Type of Cooperative Learning:
Purpose: To enhance understanding of a unit
of information; to make connection to prior learning
Informal Group
True or False
The Length of Existence for Formal Learning:
No more than one class and perhaps for only a
few minutes during a class
False
Informal Learning
Length of time:
No more than one class and perhaps for only a
few minutes during a class
Type of Cooperative Learning:
To provide encouragement and to monitor progress throughout the learning experience
BASE GROUPS
True or False
The Length of Existence for Cooperative Learning:
The length of the learning experience, usually long term
False
The Length of Time for Base Group:
The length of the learning experience, usually long term
Probably most useful in academic setting
rather than in in-service or patient education situations
Formal Group
It can be used in any setting
Informal Group
It could be applied easily to new staff
orientation or preceptorship programs.
Base Group
4 Advantages of Cooperative Learning
FUNCTION: Group members learn to function as part of a team.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS: Working in a group for any length of time can teach or enhance social and communication skills.
LEARNING NEEDS & STYLES: Can help to address individual learning needs and learning styles
CRITICAL THINKING: Critical thinking is promoted
Are controlled representations of reality
Simulations
Exercises that learners engage in to learn about the real worlds without the risks of the real world
Simulations
4 Types of SImulation:
❖Simulation Exercise
❖ Simulation Game
❖ Role-Playing
❖ Case Study
A simulation that’s a controlled representation of a piece of reality that learners can manipulate to better understand the corresponding real situation.
Simulation Exercise
A game that represents real-life situations in which learners
compete according to set of rules in order to win or achieve an object.
Simulation Game
A form of drama in which learners spontaneously act out roles in an
interaction involving problems or challenges in human relations.
Role-Playing
An analysis of an incident r situation in which characters and
relationship are described, factual or hypothetical events transpire and problems need to be resolved or solved.
Case Study
Is an approach to learning that involves confronting students with
real-life problems that provide a stimulus for critical for critical
thinking and self-taught content.
Problem-based Learning (PBL)
Students working together in small groups facilitated by an
educator, will analyse a case, identify their own needs form
information and then solve authentic problems like those that
occur in everyday life.
Problem-based Learning (PBL)
It is a teaching/learning strategy that is probably most applicable
to academic settings, although it can be used in staff development
courses.
Problem-based Learning (PBL)
Is thought by some people to be synonymous with the simulation
case method of learning and teaching.
Problem-based Learning (PBL)
Also called self-directed modules, self-paced learning modules, self-learning packets, and individualized learning-activity packages.
Self-Learning Modules
Self-Learning Modules are also called:
-__________________________
-__________________________
-__________________________
-___________________________
self-directed modules
self-paced learning modules
self-learning packets
individualized learning-activity packages.
Can be defined as a self-contained unit or package of study materials for use by an individual.
Self-Learning Modules
True or False:
Self-Learning Modules can be produced in soft copy, online or CD-ROM.
False
Self-Learning Modules can be produced in HARD copy, online or CD-ROM
Self-directed learning is based on some of the
principles of adult learning such as:
A. Adults are self-motivated to learn material for which they see
relevance.
B. Adults are learning more by discovery learning on their own.
C. Adults’ prior experience is a resource for further learning.
D. They prioritize learning according to their societal roles.
E. Adult’s are problem focused and readily learn material they can
use to solve problems.
A, C, E
Used to communicate information to students in a time saving way
Computer
Which of these describes a computer:
A. to teach critical thinking and problem solving
B. to learn broader than what is taught
C. to provide simulations of reality
D. to educate from a distance
E. to educate conveniently
F. Maximize time on task and help develop overlearning
G. Provide interactivity, instructional consistency, reduction of
teacher’s repetitive tasks, individualized instruction, time
efficiency and cost effectiveness.
A, C, D, F, G
Computers maximize time on task and help develop _____________________.
Computer
Maximize time on task and help develop overlearning.
3 Role of Computers:
- Computer can maximize
time on task. - Computer programs provide
instant feedback that is so
effective in learning. - Computer include interactivity, increased students
motivation, increased access to feedback to
information, instructional consistency, reduction of
teachers’ repetitive tasks, individualized instruction,
time efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
can be used in classrooms and laboratories, clinical units, or homes.
Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI)
it requires that the program be aimed toward instructional objectives and be of high quality
Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI)
the learners have sufficient technological support
Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI)
the computer is judged to be the best way to teach given content.
Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI)
Levels of Computer-Assisted Instruction :
1-5 (Arranged)
- Drill and Practice
- Tutorials
- Games
- Simulations
- Multimedia Presentations
teachers can use computers to manage, prepare, organize, and evaluate
educational experiences.
Computer-Managed Instruction
any system of record keeping such as recording grades, keeping attendance
records and recording student profile can also be considered ________________.
Computer-Managed Instruction
pre-developed software packages that guide the
educator through the process of development of CAI
AUTHORING SYSTEMS
Is mammoth complex of computer
connections across continents, connecting many
millions of computers.
The Internet
Can be used to provide greater collaboration
between teachers and students.
Each search engine uses different databases
and different techniques for its indexing and
therefore you can use two search engines and
obtain quite different results
Use Search Engine
That indexes Web pages
for you and gives you the URL Uniform
Resources Locator for each page.
Use Search Engine

unique opportunity to practice complex and dangerous skills in a
harsh environment.

students have already earned certain information,
either through computer programs or teaching
methods
DRILL AND PRACTICE
this mode particularly lends itself to teaching
mathematical calculations.
DRILL AND PRACTICE
the computer program tells the student whether the
answers are correct and may go to far as t diagnose
the problems if the answers are incorrect.
DRILL AND PRACTICE
he program tutors or teaches the student a body of
knowledge by presenting information and asking
questions.
TUTORIALS
_________________are most useful in teaching material at the
rule and concept level.
Tutorials
Just as board games, card games and trivia games
Games
One of the most exciting available form of CAI.
Simulation
Provide students with opportunity to learn how to solve
clinical problems and make sound decisions.
Simulation
Students can take risks and make mistakes with no
danger to the patient
Simulation
Sometimes called hypermedia
Multimedia presentations
Programs may incorporate text, soundtracks, graphics,
still photos, animation, video clips and material from
the World Wide Web (WWW).
Multimedia presentations
