GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES
• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Experiential Learning -students acquire knowledge and

skills through direct observations and analysis of what
has been observed. It is the process of formulating new
insights and gaining new skills from direct experiences
with natural occurrences and interactions with the
environment; “learning by doing”.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Problem-Solving – employs scientific method in

searching for information.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• The Constructivist Approach – learners construct

meaning through the interaction of previous
learning and new learning events provided by
the teacher.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• The Constructivist Approach
• Review – a recount of observations done in the
past learning activity that is being connected to
the new lesson to be introduced.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• The Constructivist Approach
• Inquiry teaching – The teacher poses a
problem, asks questions, and facilitates open
discussion to draw conclusion.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• The Constructivist Approach
• Reflection - The learner gains new
interpretations and conclusions by recapturing
an experience, thinking about it, and evaluating
it.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Inquiry Teaching – students seek answers to their

own questions through self-directed learning
activities by following the scientific method.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Synectics - students formulate analogies in

analyzing learning situations for new ideas and
solutions.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Constructing Projects – a “self-directed study”

which requires the students to present in
concrete form the result of a research done.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Collections – uses the skill in sorting and

classifying according to a criterion.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Consequence Mapping – involves the visual

organization of the consequences of an event
given by the teacher.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Concept Mapping – involves the visual

organization of concepts or summary of a lesson
into hierarchical arrangement.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Role-play Debate – the students present

contradicting ideas which are assigned and
planned of the discussion.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED
METHODS/APPROACHES/STRATEGIES

• Indirect / Discovery Strategies

• Poster Making – the students presents their

learning through posters which can be in words
or in pictures/ drawings.
