Methods & Strats of Teaching Flashcards
Differentiate ability from aptitude.
Ability = capacity to understand and use information
Aptitude = innate talent or gift
What are the four thinking styles?
Concrete Sequential Thinkers
Concrete Random Thinkers
Abstract Sequential Thinkers
Abstract Random Thinkers
Compare and contrast Concrete Sequential Thinkers and Concrete Random Thinkers.
Both thinking styles tend to be based on reality. But CRTs are willing to experiment and undergo a trial and error approach.
Compare and contrast Abstract Sequential Thinkers and Abstract Random Thinkers
Both love the world of theory and abstract thought. But ARTs prefer reflective activities, while ASTs prefer structured and rational approaches to theoretical activities.
Enumerate and describe the three domains of objectives in a lesson plan
Cognitive Domain: learner’s mental ability
Affective Domain: learner’s behavior and characteristics
Psychomotor Domain: learner’s actions
Enumerate Bloom’s Taxonomy, beginning from the lowest level.
- Remembering
- Understanding
- Applying
- Analyzing
- Evaluating
- Creating
What are the lowest and highest levels of the Taxonomy of Affective Objectives?
(Clue: From “I caught the ball” to “I am the ball”; RRVOC)
Receiving (lowest); Characterization (highest)
What are the lowest and highest levels of the Taxonomy of Psychomotor Objectives?
(Clue: “I wanna copy pansexuals” to “I am pansexual”; IM PAN)
Imitation (lowest); Naturalization (highest)
Imitation
Manipulation
Precision
Articulation
Naturalization
An approach that gives learners rules, then examples, then practice. It is a teacher-centered approach.
Deductive approach
An approach that provides learners with examples and allows them to arrive at their own conclusions. It is a learner-centered approach.
Inductive approach
An approach that enforces order and structure in the classroom, believing in the rights of students and teachers to work in a safe, calm, and professional environment.
Assertive approach
An approach that uses classroom activities to keep students busy.
Business Academic Approach
A technique that features a series of teacher-implemented activities aimed at improving classroom behavior.
Behavioral Modification
An approach that proactively responses immediately to group student behavior that might be undesirable before it turns into a problem.
Group Managerial Approach
A technique used to manipulate or change the surface behavior of the student on a group basis.
Group Guidance
An approach seeks to improve students’ behavior and achievement by providing them a sense of acceptance.
Acceptance Approach
An approach that provides students a sense of belonging so that they’re more likely to become academically engaged and well-behaved.
Success Approach
[blank] happens when the teacher shows that they have control of the classroom by being able to do more than one thing at a time.
Overlapping
When a teacher ends a topic or activity without it being completed, it is referred to as [blank]
Dangling
When a teacher’s attention is interrupted by extraneous stimuli (e.g. pupils whispering to each other), it is referred to as [blank]
Stimulus-boundedness
When the teacher bursts into activities without assessing student readiness, it is referred to as [blank]
Thrust
When a teacher does not return to the activity after being interrupted, it is referred to as [blank]
Truncation
When a teacher changes activity A to B then back to A, as though they changed their mind, it is referred to as [blank]
Flip-flop
When a lesson slows down because a teachers spends too much time on a concept or a student’s specific behavior, it is referred to as [blank]
Overdwelling
When a teacher overexplains the instructions of an activity, causing students to wait long before they get to work, is referred to as [blank]
Fragmentation
[blank] is a nonverbal intervention that communicates to a student that a behavior is not acceptable, without disrupting the rest of the class.
Signal Interference
With this tool/technique, the teacher asserts their authority to the learners. “I am the boss here.”
Direct Appeal
[blank] is when the teacher removes any object that distracts students’ attention.
Removal of Seductive Object
A technique that removes a student from a situation where they are most likely to become a disruptive influence.
Antiseptic bouncing
(Clue: The disruptive student is a virus.)
[blank] method is used when a large number of NEW topics are given to students in a limited time.
Lecture
[blank] method is used when the materials are limited and too risky to be used.
Demonstration
[blank] method is used when teachers guide students in discussing and organizing ideas by themselves
Discovery
[blank] method is used when students are given opportunities to engage in processes of investigation and inquiry through the use of apparatuses and equipment.
Laboratory
[blank] method is used when two or more teachers cluster together to support each other in carrying out specialized topics and areas
Team teaching
[blank] method is used when a device is used to present the learning material as the learner goes through specific steps to learn the content.
Programmed Instruction
[blank] method is used when a learner takes a test for placement, does a series of self-paced tasks, and takes another test to see learning achievement.
Individually Prescribed Instruction
[blank] method is used when a students are given a set of real-world problems to promote scientific attitudes and reflective thinking skills.
Problem-Based/Problem-Solving
[blank] method is used when the teacher tells or explains a concept themselves, calling on students to answer questions.
Expository
[blank] method is used when students are assigned roles/tasks they must accomplish in a group.
Cooperative
[blank] refers to the time the teacher actually spends in the classroom giving instruction.
Teaching time
If a teacher wants to see attitudinal change in a learner, the best technique to use is?
Role play
A technique where small groups of participants (five or less) sit together to discuss among themselves their opinions on a certain issue.
Buzz session
A technique where students pantomime or portray specific events in history or a fictional material
Socio-drama
A technique where the class is divided into groups of six persons each and generate ideas for six minutes.

What is the difference between a panel discussion, forum, and symposium?
panel discussion = discuss one topic among themselves
forum = audience can participate by asking questions
symposium = present different topics
Difference between a prompt and a probe
prompt = usually a hint or clue
probe = usually a follow up question
Wait time—pausing before responding to a student’s answer—is a technique used to encourage students to expound further on their response.
What is the ideal wait time for (1) lower order questions and (2) higher order questions?
Lower order = 3 secs
Higher order = 10 secs
What effect describes the development of a positive perception towards a person based on a good first impression that they made?
Halo effect
What effect describes the development of a negative perception towards a person based on a bad first impression that they made?
Horn effect
What effect describes the tendency of teachers to favor certain students over others?
Generosity effect
What effect describes the increase in performance of students who are being noticed or watched by the teacher?

- Power seeking
- Revenge seeking
- Appearing inadequate
