A teaching strategy is the method you use to convey information to your students.
There may be a particular strategy that works well with your group of students one year that
won’t work with your students the next year. Because of this, it’s important to have lots of
teaching strategies in your toolbox. Here are some of the top ideas for you to use.
Institutions of higher learning across the nation are responding to political, economic,
social and technological pressures to be more responsive to students' needs and more
concerned about how well students are prepared to assume future societal roles. Faculty are
already feeling the pressure to lecture less, to make learning environments more interactive,
to integrate technology into the learning experience, and to use collaborative learning
strategies when appropriate.
1. Modeling
After telling students what to do, it’s important to show them exactly how to do it.
Model how you expect them to complete an assignment, so they understand what they’re
supposed to do. This will help your students who are visual learners, too.
2. Mistakes
If you’ve ever accidentally spelled a word wrong on the board, you know that students
love to identify mistakes. When you’re teaching a new skill, make an example riddled with
mistakes. Let students practice the skill by identifying and fixing the mistakes for you.
3. Feedback
Students don’t always know if they’re doing a good job without you telling them so.
Regularly provide written or verbal feedback for individual or group assignments.
Also, it can be beneficial to turn the tables sometimes. Let the students provide you feedback
to tell you how you’re doing, too.
4. Cooperative Learning
Students learn effectively when they’re working together. Plan activities that require
students to work together and learn from one another. In the process, they’ll also learn critical
thinking skills, communication skills, problem solving skills, and more.
6. Student-Led Classroom
When students get to be the teacher for the day, they learn things that they wouldn’t
have learned otherwise. You could have students team teach or work in groups to teach a new
topic. You’ll find that other students will learn from their peers’ unique take on the subjects,
too.
7. Class Discussion
Another way for students to teach each other is through class discussions. As students
take turns discussing the subject, you can assess their knowledge and discover which students
grasp the concepts and to what extent.
8. Inquiry-Guided Instruction
By asking questions and working together to solve the problems, students get to be
involved in the learning process. The class can work together to determine the answer and
report it. As students do the work to discover the answers on their own, they remember the
concepts better and more fully.
Although there are times when lecturing is the most appropriate method for
disseminating information, current thinking in college teaching and learning suggests that the
use of a variety of instructional strategies can positively enhance student learning. Obviously,
teaching strategies should be carefully matched to the teaching objectives of a particular
lesson. For more information about teaching strategies, see the list of college teaching
references in Appendix N.
16. Panels
A discussion in conversational form among a selected group of persons with a leader, in
front of an audience that joins in later. When Used: As a technique to stimulate interest and
thinking, to provoke better discussion.
17. Symposia
A discussion in which a topic is broken into various parts. Each part is presented by an
expert or well-informed person in a brief, concise speech. When Used: When you want to
transmit specific information. Procedure: The facilitator meets with three or four group
members and plans an outline. The participants are introduced and give reports. The group
questions the speakers. At the end of the discussion, the facilitator summarizes the main
issues
18. Debates
A pro-and-con discussion of a controversial issue. The objective is to convince the
audience rather than display skill in attacking the opponent. When Used: When discussing a
controversial issue on which there are fairly definite opinions on both sides to bring these
differences out in the open in a friendly manner.
21. Phillips 66
A spontaneous method where six people express their opinions for six minutes. When
Used: To add spice and variety to methods of presentation. Procedure: Participants first define
the topic of discussion. The facilitator selects six people and allows them six minutes for
discussion.
