distinguishing between inductive and deductive methods of teaching

ANALYZE

1. What are possible consequences of teaching purely subject matter for mastery and for the test?

The students will be enclosed in the four corners of the classrooms, the learning will not extend to the real world because the students are just bombarded with concepts but with no application. Students will study just for the sake of examinations and what the teacher had taught would be easily forgotten.

2. If you were to reteach the classes you observed, would you be teacher-centered or student-centered? Why?

If I am to reteach I would use the teacher-centered to encourage and motivate the whole class to actively participate in the class discussion and in learning activities. I would impose positive reinforcement wherein I will recognize the answers that may motivate them to participate more.
