Abstract:
Teaching is a dynamic and well-planned process. Its objective is to acquire maximum learning
experiences. A skilled teacher, while planning, thinks carefully about the teaching strategies. The
operations of teaching depends upon contents task analysis, teaching objectives, and nature of
learning, types of learning, learning experiences, interest of pupils, their attitudes, capacities,
needs and entering
behavior. Therefore, it is important to take decision about teaching
operations; a teacher should perform in order to achieve the objectives of teaching. For this, it is
necessary to select and use appropriate instructional strategy.
Behaviouristic view of knowledge-which insists upon assimilation through stimulus-response
bond was not considered as an effective approach and severely refuted and opposed by
constructivist view of giving more prominence to knowledge- construction. From ancient
periods, whenever a strange concept or a novel idea has been proposed, there will be commotion
and upsurge over it.
