ACTIVITY-BASED
TEACHING STRATEGY
INTRODUCTION:

Most of the teaching is done in a traditional


monologue session, where the teacher does
the talking and the students are passive
audience. Little is known to the teacher on
the amount of knowledge consumed by the
students. Unless the student seriously focuses
on the key points delivered during the
teaching, there is a definite reason for the
knowledge to escape into thin air.
 
ACTIVITY-BASED TEACHING
FOR EFFECTIVE LEARNING
A variety of interactive activities designed to
stimulate interest and involvement in the
learning process with the positive outcome of
seeing students actively participating in the
construction of their own knowledge rather than
being passive learners.
I hear, and I forget.
I see, and I remember.
I do, and I understand.

-- Confucius
PURPOSE
o To improve the self-confidence of
students who are in the beginning
developmental stages of learning

o To innovate students and improve their


interpersonal skills.

o Increased the understanding of the


topic
ADVANTAGES
o The most important feature of activity based instruction is
learning by doing.

o Better understanding of a lesson among students as they


learn the lesson by practicing the task themselves.

o It inspires the students to apply their creative ideas,


knowledge and minds in solving problems as well as
promoting competitive spirit among them.

o It also helps learner psychologically as they can express


their emotions through active participation in something
useful.

o The method also helps in developing their personalities,


social traits and inter-personal management skills.
DISADVANTAGES
o The teacher has to make sure that all students have
sufficient knowledge and skills regarding the task they
are going to perform.

o Learners have varied levels of merit and understanding.

o The activity based method is more suitable for


branches of experimental sciences and less useful for
subjects of social sciences.

o Activity is just part of learning. Without reflecting on


the activity, the active learning will have very little
lasting value.

•Does this simulation offer an appropriate measure of realism
for my group of students?
•Are the desired instructional outcomes well defined?
•Is the level of ambiguity manageable for this group?
•Does the student demonstrate an understanding of his/her
role?
•Are problem solving techniques in evidence?
•Does the research being generated match the nature of the
problem?
•Is cooperation between participants in evidence?
•Has the student been able to resolve the issue satisfactorily?
•Does the student provide meaningful answers to probing
questions?
•Will follow-up activities be necessary?
