Constructivist teaching is
based on the belief that learning
occurs as learners are actively
involved in a process of meaning
and knowledge construction as
opposed to passively receiving
information. Learners are the
makers of meaning and
knowledge.
Characteristics of constructivist
teaching

1.Authentic activities and real world

environments
2.Multiple perspective
3.Wholistic, integrative
4.Self-directed learners
5.Meaningful learning
INTERACTIVE TEACHING
 The word interactive can remind us of people
with whom the learner interacts in order to
learn.
 The interaction can be between the learner
and learning materials (module, film, video
clip, poem, map)

Why do we promote interactive teaching?

 TEACHER’S TASKS IN INTERACTIVE
TEACHING-LEARNING
Teacher:
must ask specific, non-intimidating feedback
questions and HOTS questions.
 must make focus interaction clear.
 must create the climate favorable for genuine
interaction.
 must do less talk so students talk more.
 COLLABORATIVE TEACHING
 An effective class interaction paves the way
of collaboration.
 When the students collaborate for learning,
they do not just interaction, they work
together and help one another for a common
goal.
 This is peer to peer learning.
 TEACHER’S TASKS IN COLLABORATIVE
TEACHING-LEARNING
Teacher must:
 begin with the conviction that every student
can share something in the attainment of
goal.
 structure task in such way of that the group
cannot be realized without the members of
collaborating.
 make the goal clear to all.
 TEACHER’S TASKS IN COLLABORATIVE
TEACHING-LEARNING
Teacher must:
 ensure that guidelines on procedures are
clear especially on how their performance is
assessed.
 make clear that the end of the activity, they
have to reflect together.
INTEGRATIVE TEACHING & LEARNING
 Integrative teaching and learning means
putting together separate discipline to make a
whole.
 This affirms the “boundlessness” of
disciplines.
Interdisciplinary Teaching. Integrate comes from
the latin word “integer” which means to make a
whole.

 Multiple Intelligences-based and Learning
Style-based teaching
In 1983 an American developmental psychologist
Howard Gardener described nine (9) types of
multiple intelligences.

1. Naturalist 6. Bodily- Kinesthetic

2. Musica
7. Linguistic
1. Logical-mathematical 8. Intrapersonal
2. Existential 9. Spatial
3. Interpersonal
There are currently seven learning styles:

1. Visual
2. Aural
3. Verbal
4. Physical
5. Logical
6. Social
7. Solitary
 TEACHER’S TASKS IN INTEGRATIVE
TEACHING-LEARNING
 To do integrative teaching, a teacher
needs a broad background for him/her
to see readily the entry points for
interdisciplinary integration.
 To do integrative by transdisciplinary
and 3-level teaching mode, a teacher
must be able to connect subject matter
to values and to life as a whole.
 To be able to integrate MI and LS, the
teacher must be familiar with Mis and
LSs and must have a reservoir of
teaching activities to be able to cater
to students with diverse MIs and LSs.
 INQUIRY-BASED TEACHING
 teaching that is focused on inquiry or
question.
 it espouses investigation exploration, search,
quest, research, pursuit and study.

Why do we encourage inquiry-based

teaching and learning?
 TEACHER’S TASKS IN INQUIRY-BASED
TEACHING-LEARNING
Teachers are responsible for:
 starting the inquiry process;
 promoting student dialog;
 transitioning between small groups and
classroom discussions;
 intervening to clear misconceptions or
develop students’ understanding of content
material; and
 modelling scientific procedures and
attitudes.
Inquiry-based Learning Activities:

 Creating questions of their own

 Obtaining supporting evidence to
answer the question(s)
 Explaining the evidence collected
 Connecting the explanation to the
knowledge obtained from the
investigation process.
Inquiry-based learning covers a
range of activities to learning
and teaching, including:

 Field-work
 Case studies
 Investigations
 Individual and group projects
 Research project
