Models of

Teaching
Manongdo, Zeny Rose
Nisperos, John

Imagine the conversation

Classrooms where
teachers carefully
explained to
students what and
how they were going
to teach and told
students exactly
what they wanted
students to be able
to do as a result of
their teachinglearning interactions.

Imagine the sense of

sharing
The feeling that you
were going to be
part of something
bigger than you.
The sense of
excitement of
learning
something new -that you could
almost taste it.

Imagine

The feeling of
empowermen
t

Schools as places that

students longed to attend

What are Models of Teaching?

Prescriptive

strategies to
guide planning and
instruction

Supported

by research
based-evidence

Models of Teaching

Detailed

overview of how to

teach
Role of instructor
Type of classroom structure
Ways teacher supports student
efforts

What are Models of Teaching?

Provide common language to
discuss facets of instruction
common across all classrooms
among administrators and
teachers.

What are Models of Teaching?

Conceptual

frameworks grouped by
purpose and intended outcomes
into 4 families.

Promote

awareness about how

individuals and collective faculty
teach.

Helps

students learn how to learn.

What are Models of Teaching?

Eliminates

differences due to
gender, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status.

Increases

probability of learning
certain skills/knowledge.

FAMILIES OF TEACHING
MODELS

INFORMATION-PROCESSING
FAMILY

Enhances

making sense of new

information.

Help

students learn how to

construct knowledge.

Information-processing
models: An example

Fourth grade students seated around a center.

Jack Jones, the teacher, lights a candle and
places a jar with 6 inch circumference over the
candle. The candle burns out.
He repeats this exercise several times with jars
of varying circumference and places them over
lighted candles.
He tells students, Now we are going to develop
some ideas about what just happened.

SOCIAL FAMILY
Uses

group inquiry and problemsolving strategies.

Encourages

assimilation and
understanding.

Relies

on students personal and

social values.

Social models: An example

Janie Hrocks 12th grade class begins with a
videotape of a court room scene. A mother
is fighting to prevent a father from having
time together with their 9 year old
daughter. Parents have joint custody.
As the case proceeds Ms. Hrock asks
students to document the issues and
their questions.
Following the tape, the students describe
issues, defend positions and ask questions.

PERSONAL FAMILY
Emphasizes

self-actualizing,
self-awareness, directing
destinies.

Exploration

and reflection
about goals or future careers.

Personal models: An
example
Terrace Banks 6th grade students enter

Language Arts classroom on first day of

school. As they take their seats, Banks tells
students to write about what they want to
be when they grow up and asks to them to
explain why.
After about 30 minutes, students share
essays aloud. As students read, Banks asks
them what skills they think they will need
to enter chosen professions.

BEHAVIORAL FAMILY
Develop

mastery in subject

matter or skills acquisition.

Seeks

specific behavioral

changes.
Measurable

outcomes.

Behavioral models: An
example
Lem McCoys 4th grade
students arrive to class and find
a quiz on their desks.
Students are given 100, 1 by 1
digit multiplication problems.
McCoy tells them to complete
as many correctly in 5 minutes
are they can.

Explicit

use of teaching
models can accelerate
rate of learning,
capacity and facility in
learning.

Teaching &
Curriculum

Teaching &
Curriculum
the totality of student experiments

that occur in the educational

process

Curriculum

a planned sequence of instruction,

or to a view of the student's
experiences in terms of the
educator's or school's instructional
goals

Understanding the
curriculum as a whole

The curriculum is structured

around allthe experiences that are
planned as part of learning and
teaching. By recognising and
planning learning around different
contexts and experiences, the
curriculum aims to make better
connections across learning.

The purpose of the

curriculum
The four capacities
1. Successful learners
2. Confident individuals
3. Responsible citizens
4. Effective contributors

The role of spirituality

in health care
Helping, fixing, and serving
represent three different ways of
seeing life. When you help, you
see life as weak. When you fix, you
see life as broken. When you
serve, you see life as whole. Fixing
and helping may be the work of
the ego, and service the work of
the soul.

ADVANTAGES OF
BECOMING FAMILIAR
WITH PATIENTS'
SPIRITUALITY

ADVANTAGES

Spirituality may be a dynamic in

the patient's understanding of the
disease.

ADVANTAGES

Religious convictions may affect

health care decision making.

ADVANTAGES

Spirituality may be a patient need

and may be important in patient
coping.

ADVANTAGES

An understanding of the patient's

spirituality is integral to whole
patient care.

Transformatio
nal Teaching

Transformational
Teaching

Transformational teaching goes

beyond passive lecturing; it also
goes beyond active learning.

Transformational
Teaching

Transformational teaching is about

employing strategies that promote
positive changes in students lives.
The goal is not simply to impart
certain information to students,
but rather to change something
about how students learn and live

Transformational
Teaching

In transformational teaching,
teachers are conceptualized as
change agents who develop
projects that guide students
toward personal change.

Teaching that Transforms that

is, teaching thatchangespeople,
altering fundamentally the way
learners understand themselves
and others, the way they engage
in and contribute to their larger
world.
