ACTIVITY-BASED
TEACHING STRATEGIES:
Cooperative Learning
Simulation and Games
Case Studies
Problem-Based Learning
Self-Learning Modules
ACTIVITY-BASED TEACHING STRATEGIES Implies ____ on the part of the learner.
active learning
these strategies require the learner to do more than listen and study.
ACTIVITY-BASED TEACHING STRATEGIES
There is greater deal of research pointing to greater knowledge retention and a high level of performance. :True or false
TRUE
Is based on the premise that learners work together and are responsible for not only their own learning but for the learning of other group members
COOPERATIVE LEARNING
It involves structuring small
groups of learners who work
together toward achieving shared learning goals.
COOPERATIVE LEARNING
types of cooperative learning groups
FORMAL
GROUPS
INFORMAL
GROUPS
BASE GROUP
the purpose of cooperative learning groups in this type of group is to complete a
specific learning task
consisting of concepts or
skills
FORMAL
GROUPS
the purpose of cooperative learning groups in this type of group is to enhance
understanding of a specific unit of information;
to make connections to
prior learning
INFORMAL
GROUPS
the purpose of cooperative learning groups in this type of group is to provide
encouragement and to monitor progress throughout the learning experience
BASE GROUP
the length of existence in formal groups take:
One class to
many week
the length of existence in informal groups take:
No more than
one class and
perhaps for only
a few minutes
during a class
the length of existence in base groups take:
long
term.
Advantages of Cooperative Learning:
to function as part
of a team.
enhance social skills.
Critical thinking is
promoted.
Disadvantages of Cooperative Learning:
slow learners may lag
behind.
Learning gap may exist
Why is cooperative learning so effective?
It helps in synthesizing ideas.
Are controlled representation of reality.
Are exercises that learners engage in
to learn about the real world without
the risks of the real world.
Can be a lot of fun
SIMULATION
Purposes of Simulation
develop human interactions abilities
practice decisionmaking and problem-solving skills
learn psychomotor skills
apply principles and
theories learners
Uses of Simulation
achieve many learning objectives
venue for attitude change.
teaching of
psychomotor skills
4 Types of Simulation
Simulation Exercise
Simulation Game
Role Play
Case Study
this type of simulation helps Learners learn how to make decisions or solve problem or apply theory.
Simulation Exercise
a game that represents real-life situations in
which learners compete according to a set of
rules
Simulation Game
Simulation Games
focus on either:
content or process
learning.
an analysis of an incident or situation
Case Study
