Principles of Teaching
DOMAIN 4: CURRICULUM
•Demonstrates mastery of the subiect
• Communicates clear learning goals for the lessons that are appropriate for leamers
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
The 7 Domains collectively comprise 37 strands that refer to more specific dimensions of
teaching
Domain 1, Content Knowledge and Pedagogy, is composed of seven strands:
1. Content knowledge and its application within and across curriculum areas
2. Research-based knowledge and principles of teaching and learning
3. Positive use of ICT
4. Strategies for promoting literacy and numeracy
5. Strategies for developing critical and creative thinking, as well as other higher-order
thinking skills (HOTS)
6. Mother Tongue, Filipino and English in teaching and learning
7. Classroom communication strategies
They have a strong understanding of the subjects/areas in which they are trained in
terms of content knowledge and pedagogy
They possess the requisite knowledge, skills and values that support the teaching and
learning process.
They manage learning programs and have strategies that promote learning based on
the learning needs of their students
They seek advice from experienced colleagues to consolidate their teaching practice.
Beginning teachers seek advice from
Highly Proficient Teachers
Career Stage 2 or Proficient Teacher (2-3 years)
are professionally independent in the application of skills vital to the teaching and
learning process
They provide focused teaching programs that meet curriculum and assessment
requirements
They display skills in planning, implementing, and managing learning programs
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
They actively engage in collaborative learning with the professional community and
other stakeholders for mutual growth and advancement.
They are reflective practitioners who continually consolidate the knowledge, skills and
practices of Carner Stage 1 teachers.
exhibit exceptional capacity to improve their own teaching practice and that of others.
They may think in pictures and learn best from visual aids including: diagrams,
illustrated textbooks, overhead projectors, flipcharts, and handout.
During a lecture of classroom discussion, visual leamers prefer to take detailed
notes to absorb information
2 Types
1.1 Visual-Iconic
more interested in visual imagery such as film, graphic displays, or pictures in order
to solidify learning
Usually have good "picture memory" aka. iconic memory and attend to pictorial
detail
They would like to read a map better than to read a book
Tend to be good abstract thinkers who do not require practical means for learning
Often benefit from reading text aloud and using a tape recorder
2.1 Listeners
They remember things said to them and make information their own.
They even carry on mental conversations and figure out how to extend what they
leamed by reviewing in their heads what they heard others say
2.1 Talkers
Prefer to talk and discuss
GLOBAL-ANALYTIC CONTINUUM
1. ANALYTIC
Tend toward the linear, step-by-step processing of learning - (breakdown)
They are the "forest seers" who give attention only to the overall structure and
sometimes ignore details
Analytic in approach
Laws of Learning
1. Law of Freedom- Things freely learned are best learned.
2. Law of Intensity- The more intense the material taught, the more it is likely learned
3. Law of Recency- Things most recently learned are best remembered
4. Law of Primacy- Things leamed first create a strong impression. What is taught
must be right the first time.
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
5. Law of Readiness Individuals learn best when they are physically, mentally, and
emotionally ready to learn, and they do learn well if they see no reason for
learning. (Keyword: MOTIVATION)
6. Law of Exercise- Things most often repeated are best remembered -
7. Law of Effect-learning in strengthened when accompanied by a pleasant or
satisfying feeling
Taxonomy of Objectives
S-Specific
M-Measurable
A-Attainable
R-Relevant/Result Oriented
T-Time-bounded/Terminal
5. Evaluating (Synthesis)
Student can apply a standard in making a judgment on the worth of something
aut port an action or a design
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
Judging in terms of internal evidence or logical consistency
Justifying a decision or course of action
6. Non-discursive communication
Students have the ability to communicate through body movements
demonstrate how to focus the microscope under the L.P.O and H.P.O is the
performance on how a student will perform the condition.

Skills
1. Manipulative skills
This includes courses that are dominantly skill-oriented like Home Economics, PE, and
the like. The learning here begins with naive manipulation and ends up in expert and
precise manipulation
2. Thinking skills
Divergent thinking
Includes fluent thinking, flexible thinking, original thinking & elaborative thinking
o Fluent thinking-characterized by generation of lots of ideas
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
o Flexible thinking-characterized by a variety of thoughts in the kinds of ideas
generated
o Elaborative thinking- uses prior knowledge to expand and add upon things and
ideas
Convergent thinking- have one single best thought
Problem Solving
Curiosity
Imagination- ability to speculate about things that are not necessarily based on
reality.
Fluency ability to produce large quantity of idees
Originality
Guided/Exploratory Approach
Inductive Method learning process is inquiry-based, result
Inquiry
Problem solving
Project
Metacognitive
Constructivist
Reflective teaching
Cooperative leaming
Peer teaching/tutoring
Partner learning
1. Demonstration Method
Here, the teacher or an assigned student or group shows how process is done while
the students become observers.
Is used when materials are not enough.
2. Deductive method - from general to specific. Here the teacher starts discussing a rule
then with giving examples
II. Indirect instruction is best used when the learning process is inquiry-based, the result
is discovery and the learning context is a problem.
1. Inductive Method
Is also referred to as indirect instruction, It begins from specific to general
It begins with questions, problems, and details and end up with answers,
generalizations, conclusions.
In this method, instead of the teacher giving the rule in adding similar fractions,
s/he will give them at least five examples of added similar fractions at one time.
Ask the pupils how she arrived at the sums. From there, he will ask the pupils to
state the rule in adding fractions.
Learning becomes more interesting at the outset because of it begins with the
experiences of the learners.
Learners Develops HOTS
2. Inquiry Method
Is sometimes termed as "discovery", "heuristic" and "problem solving
4. Project Method
Is a teaching method that requires the students to present in concrete form the
results of information gathered about a concept, principle or innovation.
Sometimes referred to as "self-directed study"
The projects may be suggested by the teacher, but they are planned and executed
as far as possible by the student themselves, individually or in groups
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
Project work focuses on applying, not imparting, specific knowledge or skills, and
on improving student involvement and motivation in order to foster independent
thinking, self-confidence, and social responsibility.
5. Cooperative Learning
Makes use of classroom organization where students work in groups or teams to
help each other learn
Students work in teams to tackle academic tasks. Reward systems are group-
oriented rather than individually-oriented
Teams are made up of mixed abilities-high, average, and low achievers
7. Partner Learning
Is learning with a partner; having a study buddy
Study buddies become responsible for each other's leaming. However, each student is
held accountable for his/her own learning.
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
8. Reflective Teaching
Students/teachers learn through an analysis and evaluation of past experiences.
Without analysis, no new learning and ideas can be constructed.
Strategies of Reflective Teaching
Self analysis.
Writing journals
Keeping a portfolio
9. Metacognitive Approach
o From the prefix "meta" means beyond,
o Is an approach that goes beyond cognition.
o Thinking about thinking
o Has something to do with our students monitoring their thought processes while
they are thinking. It is allowing our students to think aloud.
o Research indicates that "effective problem solvers" SUBVOCALIZE; that is they talk
to themselves frequently.
CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT
The process of organizing and conducting the business of the classroom relatively
free of behavior problems. It is often perceived as related to the preservation of order
and the maintenance of control.
Source of Problems-

and to avoid confusion or overlap new information)
PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING 1 and 2
Sharpeners-select fewer memories when processing new knowledge tend to have
more accurate Identifications of new knowledge and can relate recently acquired
material to old material with more specificity
Levelers-tend to select many memories from the past in an attempt to clarify and
categorize newly acquired information
-Inaccurately blend features of memories together and then oversimplify the new
material or miscategorize it altogether, can miss distinguishing features among similar,

small group on task. for example, while also helping other students with their seatwork
(Kagebunshin no Jutsu ni Teacher)
3. Smoothness is the ability to make smooth lesson transitions, keep an appropriate
page, and involve all students in a lesson. Smoothness should be present to prevent
jerkiness (the disorderly flow of activities).
