3. Activity aids
They are potent motivators.
They lend reality to the classroom teaching and link instruction
with real life.
They develop interest in students.
They make learning more permanent.
They help a continuity of thought.
They save time and make learning solid and durable.

4. Type of activity aids
 Demonstration.
 Experimentation.
 Field work
 Dramatic
 CAI

5. Demonstration Method
Demonstration is a learning activity
 which is performed by a student, a group of 3 to 4 members or a
teacher while the rest become observers.
Teacher-dominated
Teachers show how to operate, manipulate an equipment while
the class observes

6. Demonstration Method
Teacher should be knowledgeable in preparing the
apparatus needed according to the steps to be
followed
The rest of the class becomes focused on the
activity and concentration on the subject is assured

7. Advantages of demonstration
Follows a systematic procedure
Helpful in conducting session and using computer programs
Possible wastage of time, effort and resources will be avoided if
demonstration is well-planned
Small number of equipment is needed
Stimulate students to be more analytical

9. Disadvantages of demonstration
All contents can not be covered
All students can not participate
Low thinking in fast demonstration
No discussion
Only useful for skilled subjects
Lack of sincerity

10. Suggestion
Teacher should be sincere, diligent and skilled person
Demonstrator should prepare himself for demonstration and
encourage the learners
Demonstration should followed discussion
Advance planning is essential for effective demonstration
Summarize the concepts in few words
List visual aids such as graphs, drawing, computer driven aids and
models etc
Demonstration must have the ability to use audio visual aids with
expertise
Determine the concept with good examples


Field Trip
Presented by
Hina Ambreen Roll # 26

13. Field Trip
Field trips require significant planning for teachers and
administrators,
Students see a field trip as a free day out of the classroom.
Students experience that they never has in the classroom.

14. Interactive learning
Field trips help students interact with what they are learning.
The students are able to see, manipulate or participate
physically.
Students are able to see elements with their eyes rather than
reading.

15. Entertainment
Field trips provide entertainment for students.
They serve as a powerful motivator for students.
Fieldtrips provide kids with a refresher that make them more
focused in the classroom.
Learning and fun make a great combination for learners.

16. Extension of classroom study
Field trips take the learning from classroom to life.
Field trips can answer the question of how learning can be
applied in life.
There are also opportunities to incorporate experience back into
classroom activity.
Through presentations, slide shows and answering questions,
the kids can learn the lessons.

17. Social Interaction
Field trip places the kids in a different social environment.
They meet a new set of adults and possibly other children.
These interactions teach them how to behave in different
settings.
It fosters a sense of teamwork among the students.

18. New Experiences
Many children don't get to experience the typical field trip
locations with their families.
A school trip gives students the opportunity to experience new
venues.
All parents are not able to take their kids to zoos, museums and
other field trip destinations.
Field trips take a great deal of work and energy, broadening the
student’s ability.

Classroom Experiments
Presented by
Farzana Aziz Roll# 33

20. What are Classroom Experiments?
Classroom experiments are activities where students work in groups on
inquiry questions.
Materials provide students with the means of collecting data through
interaction with typical laboratory materials,
Decision making environment leads to discovery-based learning.
The instructor acts as facilitator, asks leading questions and draws
results.
Focusing on ideas, students need to understand correctly to support deep
learning.

21. What are Classroom Experiments?
Classroom experiments differ from classroom demonstrations because
the students are involved in collecting data or observations.
All experiments involve observations to solve a problem.
Classroom experiments help students learn more about the material they
are studying.
An observational experiment where students "see what happens" can
also be useful.

22. Why Teach with Classroom Experiments??
Experiments can be used either to introduce new ideas or to clarify
puzzling aspects of topics.
If the result of an experiment is surprising, students are in the position to
build new ideas.
If the experiment has been understood correctly, students extend the
concept to another application.
Note that some classroom experiments may need to take place in a
laboratory.

23. Experiments help teacher achieve Goals
Student Learning Outcomes
Instructor Satisfaction With Teaching
Teaching Evaluation Scores
The method is built on research on learning.
It shows that most students do not respond best to pure "chalk and talk,"
but rather to "active learning" environments.
Classroom Experiments keep learners engaged.

24. How to teach with Classroom Experiments
Conducting a classroom experiment is easy to do.
It is good idea to use an experiment that someone has prepared.
A published experiment contains detailed instructions for conducting the
experiment.
