I begin my lesson by explaining what the lesson objectives are, what I’m looking for in the students and the success criteria. (See lesson plans) These are given to the students both verbally and visually. The next part of the lesson will usual entail a Power point on the subject been studied or a group activity/discussion. The students will then complete the work set and the lesson will finish with a self or group question and answer session for the plenary. In my lessons I use a lot of Power points, cut and paste worksheets or match the item with its description as I find that students relate to the pictures more as they tend to be more visual and kinaesthetic learners. All the resources I use are brightly coloured and easy to follow; this is to keep students engaged within the lesson, because if they were too complicated the students would lose interest.…
This emotionally powerful and intellectually stimulating; motivational and entertaining move, whichdramatically executed real life scenes,captured the attention of many, was acted out by ‘150’ students (teens) of room 203of theWoodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach, Los Angeles, California 1992; directed under the stewardship of an inexperienced fresh-faced, idealistic twenty-three year oldteacher Erin Gruwellbetter known as (Ms. ‘G’). Room 203 students were a diverse group of racially charged teenagers – African Americans, Hispanics,Asians and one Caucasian male, all from different walks of life. Some were juvenile delinquents, gang members and underprivileged coming from poor neighborhoods, who hoped for nothing more, than…
Visual learners retain information best when they are able to use flow sheets, maps, diagrams or models when learning new information. This type of learner needs to observe the material in an attractive manner. The visual learner will do best if studying using pictures, logos, designs, colors, or flow charts. Seeing the picture as a whole makes it easier for the visual learner to make sense of and retain the information presented to them.…
The impact of the Modern technology on our day-to-day lives is very dramatic and prompt but for embedding the full potential of that in teaching and learning area has still yet to come. If you compare a classroom from 100 years ago to one of the nowadays modern equipped one you will notice lots of changes but still teachers have to stimulate learning by adding accessible and inclusive resources to all learners while enabling them to gain new skills and knowledge and achieve their learning targets. Over the past few years, in many countries especially developed countries, it has become more common for teachers to use technological tools in learning process. VLEs, e-mail, digital cameras, interactive or electronic whiteboards and many more technical resources have been added to the domain of teaching and learning. Although it does pose a number of benefits towards educational system, the drawbacks cannot be overlooked. In this assignment , both pros and cons will be analysed.…
This study aims to ensure that the resources used to deliver and assess the subject are suitable for all learners and, that the range and relevance of learning and teaching materials and media have been used effectively. Also reflect on good practice in the use of materials, and common errors that should be avoided. In this regard, provide ideas and examples for the use of teaching materials to enhance student learning. Furthermore, develop professional skills as a teacher assuring that the resources used are effective and that learning has been taking place. With a view to evidencing understanding regarding this subject, this study is divided into three tasks, which are:…
Visual learners, this is learning though seeing. These types of learners would need to see the teacher’s body language and the teacher’s facial expression to completely understand the content of the lesson. It is mostly that there’s types of learners normally sit at the front of the classroom to avoid visual obstructions an example would be people’s heads. Visual learners best learn from displays this includes; diagrams, illustrated text books, videos, flipcharts, use of interactive whiteboards and hand-outs. When a classroom or lesson discussion, visual learners normally want to take detailed notes to take in the information. Teachers modelling at the beginning of the three-part lesson are particularly suitable for these children. The quality of display, AVAs, printed material etc is going to have an effect of the quality of learning of visual learners.…
Displays can be simply decorative. They can make the classroom brighter, and a more interesting and stimulating place. This, in itself, can have a direct impact on pupil motivation and therefore on pupil learning. Display materials can include direct teaching aids such as anatomical models or number lines. They can use useful reference material to support pupil learning or information that is important for students to memorise such as number tables, formula’s, spellings and other important factual…

Technology allows students to focus on one thing instead of multiple books and papers. With more and more visual presentations and lectures there will be more flexibility for students to participate. In order for students to be able to give their 100% the lessons’ presentations should be with the latest technology so they can really…
Lecture classes cater to the very few people who actually learn that way. Since visual learners are the most common student teachers should use more diagrams and pictures when teaching. In language classes this helps tremendously. Students could always look up what a word means but they have a hard time memorizing it. When there is a picture present the student can always think about that image and link the word to it. This could be applied to countless subjects. A very common example for visual learning is picture books for…
People generally use a combination of styles when they learn, but most often one or two main types are the styles in which individuals learn best. Visual learners are those who learn through watching or observing things. They prefer charts and graphs or other visual aids. Diagrams and flow charts work well with them when presenting a difficult process. If they can see the flow, they can remember the process. They prefer quiet surroundings when studying and need to think for a bit while digesting a teacher’s lecture.…
Visual learners gain information from maps such as diagrams, graphs, and charts. They learn things best through seeing them. Instead of using words, they need the information to be broke down into pieces so it is simply to comprehend. They tend to highlight information in difference colors which makes it easier for them to go back and study. These learners need to see the teacher 's…
*Visual aids and overhead projections of the lesson will also be implemented during the lessons…
First, students learn more effectively than studying alone. The teachers usually provide useful information with authentic materials like pictures or video clips to light up better comprehension. Moreover, teachers, who have more experiences, can suggest effective techniques to solve in class- problems as they are facilitator. If students are curious about lessons, they can also ask their teachers to clarify missing points immediately.…
