Week 5

Week 5 - Strategies in Designing Application Tools

Week 5 lecture is about Strategies in Designing Application Tools. These are the 7 strategies to teach Science:

1) MBL- Micro Computer based laboratory
2)Drill and practice
3) Tutorials
4) Stimulation
5) Problem-solving
6) Information retreival
7) Education games


Out of all these I personally find simulation interesting.


SIMULATION

Simulation is vital in enhancing students’ learning in science subject. This is because simulation is useful for displaying things that students cannot see with their bare eyes and touch it using their hands. For example, simulation could help students to understand about cells in human bodies. Students gain better understanding about cells in human body as they can now see how it is really like in 3D and animation form.

In conclusion, teachers can apply all the strategies given in their Science lessons. Students can surely learn better and it will produce a meaningful learning environment if we use all these strategies. T

here are indeed many strategies that can be used to teach Science to suit all the learners regardless of their learning styles such as visual, kinesthetic,tactile and much more.
