INTRODUCTION

learning which is translated into the classroom.
TEACHER-CENTERED LEARNER-CENTERED
SUBJECT-MATTERED CENTER LEARNER-CENTERED
TEACHER DOMINATED INTERACTIVE
“BANKING” APPROACH CONSTRUCTIVIST
DISCIPLINAL INTEGRATED
INDIVIDUALISTIC COLLABORATIVE
INDIRECT, GUIDED DIRECT
4. TEACHER DOMINATED APPROACH - In this approach, only the teacher’s voice is heard.
He/she is the sole dispenser of information.
5. INTERACTIVE APPROACH - In this approach, an interactive classroom will have more
student talk and less teacher talk. Students are given the opportunity to interact with teacher
and with other students.
7. BANKING APPROACH - The teacher deposits knowledge into the “empty” minds of
students for students to commit to memory.
8. INTEGRATED APPROACH - It makes the teacher connects what he/she teaches to other
lessons of the same subject (intradisciplinary) or connects his/her lessons with other
subjects thus making his/her approach (interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary).
9. DISCIPLINAL APPROACH - It limits the teacher to discussing his/her lessons within the
boundary of his/her subject.
10. COLLABORATIVE APPROACH - It will welcome group work, teamwork, partnerships, and
group discussion.
12. DIRECT TEACHING APPROACH - The teacher directly tells or shows or demonstrates what
is to be taught.
13. INDIRECT, GUIDED APPROACH - The teacher guides the learner to discover things for
himself/herself. The teacher facilitates the learning process by allowing the learner to be
engaged in the learning process with his/her guidance.
2. WHOLE CHILD APPROACH - The learning process itself takes into account not only the
academic needs of the learners, but also their emotional, creative, psychological, spiritual,
and developmental needs.
3. METACOGNITIVE APPROACH - The teaching process brings the learner to the process of
thinking about thinking. The learner reflects on what he learned and on his/her ways of
learning.
