Four Instructional Alternatives: Presentation, Discussion, Independent Study, and Individualized Instruction
Four Instructional Alternatives: Presentation, Discussion, Independent Study, and Individualized Instruction
In order to start you down the road to becoming a multitalented, versatile teacher, in this chapter and the next, you will take an in-depth look at eight instructional alternatives. Particularly helpful should be the tables that summarize what is known about each, the sample lesson plans, and the end of chapter Theory Into Action activities that allow you to prepare different kinds of lessons and perhaps teach them to your peers.
We begin our quest to become multitalented teachers by investigating four commonly used instructional alternatives: presentation, discussion, independent study, and individualized instruction.
