Teaching Infrastructure

Abstract

What learners learn depends not only on what they are taught, but also on how they are taught, their level, their development, their interests, and their background. Choose your teaching methods carefully. Preparing for a unit or course involves a number of pedagogical decisions. Teachers need to specify the following parameters: what is to be learned and how it will be learned; learners' strengths, needs, and interests; common core learnings that can be introduced; and the most effective teaching methods. These decisions are crucial and need to be made with full knowledge of the facts. The aim of teaching infrastructures is to encourage teachers to question their own teaching methods. Reflective evaluation of the effectiveness of strategies, methods, and techniques can help teachers broaden their knowledge and understand how to teach students better. Learning new things and skills about various teaching methods can improve the art of teaching and increase teaching effectiveness.
