The Concept of Teaching Methodologies, Strategies and Techniques in Education

Abstract

A teaching approach is a set of principles, beliefs, or ideas about the nature of learning that is translated into the classroom. An approach is a way of looking at teaching and learning. Underlying any language teaching approach is a theoretical view of language and how it can be understood. An approach gives rise to methods, the way of teaching something, which use classroom activities or techniques to help learners. The communicative approach is known as the best current approach to language teaching. Task-based teaching is a methodology associated with it. Other approaches are the cognitive-code approach and the aural-oral approach. Learners in modern language often learn through techniques drawn from various methods in what has been labeled an 'eclectic approach. Teachers select techniques from various approaches according to the different needs of their learners, and the term "teaching method" refers to the general principles, pedagogy, and management strategies used for classroom instruction. Your choice of teaching method depends on what fits you: your educational philosophy, classroom demographic, subject area(s), and school mission statement. Teaching theories primarily fall into two categories or "approaches." Teacher-centered and student-centered. Teaching technique is a well-defined procedure for accomplishing a specific activity or task.
