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
