unified approach in teaching

UNIFIED
APPROACH

IS A MEANS OF TREATING
RELATIONSHIPS THAT EXIST AMONG THE
SIGNIFICANT COMPONENTS MAKING UP
A GIVEN BODY OF KNOWLEDGE.
IT IS A THOROUGH PROCESS OF
WEAVING AND INTEGRATING TOPICS
INTO A GENERAL FRAMEWORK OR
CONCEPTUAL SCHEME.

PURPOSE:

to enhance the students’
learning by making them
view things in their
entirety or totality.

THE FEATURES OF THIS
APPROACH

 It

is highly cognitive

 It

leads students
toward insightful
and meaningful
learning

THE GUIDELINES
IN
UTILIZING THE
UNIFIED APPROACH



Restructure the presentation
of the subject matter to
show
the
needed
interrelationships.

 Recall

the previous
lesson and link it up
with the present one.

 Include

points only

relevant

 Start

with the most
fundamental concepts in
presenting
the
relationships.

 It

is holistic in
treatment

 It

requires the
teacher to present
his subject matter
in an entirely
different manner.

PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION

Is an instruction in
which the self-pacing
method has a rightful
place

It is a system of teaching and
learning within which the subject
matter is broken down into small,
discrete steps and carefully
organized into a logical sequence
in which it can be learned readily
by the students (MORRIS BIGGE,
1982)

It is an auto-instructional
approach to teaching
which is changing the role
of the classroom teacher
(BARRY HARLEY, 1973).

HARLEY’SMETHOD ARE
DESCRIBED AS FOLLOWS:

PROGRAMMING ITSELF IS THE WRITING OF
SEQUESTIAL STEPS STRUCTURED SO AS TO
BRING ABOUT A LEARNING EXPERIENCE.

FORMS OF RESPONSES:

PROGRAMMED MATERIALS ARE
SELF- INSTRUCTIONAL

IT IS HIGHLY INDIVIDUALIZED

IT REQUIRES THE SO-CALLED
CRITERION-REFERENCED TYPE
OF EVALUATION AND NOT THE
NORM-REFERENCED TYPE.

IT REQUIRES THE TEACHER TO
PLAY THREE DISTINCT RULES
IN
TODAY’S
SCHOOLDIRECTOR, ANALYST, AND
TUTOR.

IT IS NOT A COMPLETE
INSTRUCTION BY ITSELF

PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION
REQUIRES A LOT OF
MATERIALS.
