Focus on the whole child

Advocates of the teacher-centered approach especially believe that it is the best strategy for teaching basic skills, which involve clearly structured knowledge and skills (such as those needed in English, reading, math, and science). Th us, in teaching basic skills, the teacher-centered approach might consist of a teacher explicitly or directly teaching grammar rules, reading vocabulary, math computations, and science facts.

cognitive and metacognitive- Construction of knowledge The successful learner can link new information with existing knowledge in meaningful ways motivationsl and instructional-Intrinsic motivation to learn The learner's creativity, higher-order thinking, and natural curiosity all contribute to motivation to learn. Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal novelty and difficulty, relevant to personal interests and providing for personal choice and control. development and social-Social influences on learning Learning is influenced by social interactions, interpersonal relations, and communication with others individual-. Individual differences in learning Learners have different strategies, approaches, and capabilities for learning that are a function of prior experience and heredity.

Instructional planning involves developing a systematic, organized strategy for lessons.

Teacher-centered lesson planning includes creating behavioral objectives, analyzing tasks, and developing instructional taxonomies (classifi cations)

Teacher-centered instructional strategies include orienting students to new material; lecturing, explaining, and demonstrating; questioning and discussing; mastery learning (learning one topic or concept thoroughly before moving on to a more diffi cult one); seatwork (having students work independently at their seats); and homework.

Direct instruction is a structured, teacher-centered approach that involves teacher direction and control, high expectations for students' progress, maximum time spent by students on academic tasks, and eff orts by the teacher to keep negative aff ect to a minimum.
