Practical Teaching Methods

This is a senior-level course designed for elementary and secondary education majors. This course meets for half a semester. Primary areas of emphasis are: 1) examining and testing modalities of students; 2) examining the various methods of teaching that may be utilized in the classroom; 3) studying the areas of the brain and how they relate to modes of learning and memory; and 4) developing lessons to make learning “stick,” meaning the knowledge and skills taught are more readily remembered by the student. Assignments include reading the course text, comparing certain pages to Scripture, researching learning modalities, and writing detailed lesson plans that exhibit a “sticky” learning paradigm.
