In order to teach effectively, teacher has to adopt varied circumstances by using different techniques. teacher has to develop or cultivate his or her own style of teaching in order to become an efficient teacher
DEFINITION Burton : “Teaching method is the stimulation, guidance , direction and encouragement for learning.” Yokam and simpson : “Teaching is the means whereby the society trains the young in specific or selected environment to adjust themselves to the world in which they live as quickly as possible.” - Flander : “Teaching is an interaction process. Interaction means participation of both teacher and student and both get benefit by this. The interaction takes place for achieving desired objectives.”
OBJECTIVE OF TEACHING Aims at developing love for work Inculcates the desire to do work with maximum efficiency which one is capable of Develop the capacity of clear thinking Provides adequate opportunities for participation

Methods of teaching… Inspirational method : based on high activity on the part of the teacher e.g. simulation and microteaching Expository methods: cognitive emphasis is high while student activity and emphasis on experience is low e.g. lecture method
Methods…. Natural learning method : learning takes place in a natural way e.g. field trip Individualized method: main emphasis is for the each learner to earn at his own place e.g. programmed instruction, self study, case method, and computer oriented instruction. Group method : e.g. project method, socialized classroom method.
Methods… Encounter method: providing experience through confrontation or through encounter effective of change in basic behavioral pattern and developing new ways of looking at thing e.g. role play, simulation. Discovery method: these methods are high on all dimensions like learner activity, experience, and experimentation by learner and cognitive understanding e.g. problem solving technique.
Characteristics Imparting knowledge in an efficient manner Inculcates desirable values and proper attitude and habits of work in the student Create a genuine attachment to work and desire to it as efficiently, honestly and thoroughly as possible
Characteristics The principal of verbalism and memorization activity and project method should be assimilated in school practice Provide opportunities for students to learn actively and to apply practically the knowledge that they have acquired in the class room
Characteristics Clear thinking and clear expression both in speech and writing has to take place Train the learner in the technique of the study methods of acquiring knowledge through personal efforts and initiatives
Characteristics A well thought out attempt should be made to adopt method of instruction in order to benefit all categories of student Opportunity of the student should be provided to work in groups and to carry out project and activities to develop in them the qualities necessary for group life and for cooperation work
Principles of teaching.. Principal of motivation : the best teacher one who inspires the teacher . The human mind is like the parachute and it works only when it opens so though teaching teacher should try to unleash the talent of the student by motivating them.
Principles of activity : Teacher should also participate in various activities along with student like discussion or conducting research. Teacher must provide various types of activities such as assignment or project to enhance creative skill of students.
Teacher should arouse interest in student To make student respective teacher has to elicit interest by adopting suitable method like telling story, citing an example or by asking question for example when teaching moist heat sterilization teacher can elicit interest of student by advising them to take iidli for breakfast while travelling not only because iddli is the combination of pulses and cereals but also it is prepared in steam i.e. moist heat which is considered as one of the best method of sterilization.
There should be well defined objective :. If you are planning to take class on lecture method the following objective will serve the purpose after attending the class student will acquire knowledge regarding the practice of lecture method
Principle of individual difference : good teaching always respect the individuality of student by considering each student as unique individual teacher can pay attention to the individual difference
Principle of creativity : by applying creativity teacher can convert a passive teaching learning situation into an active one. Through creativity teacher can arouse students natural motivation to learn and this will turn convert a usually teacher centered classroom into more desirable learner centered classroom.
Principle of selection : teacher should select an appropriate content, teaching method, media of instruction, AV aids, textbook, and general article for teaching a particular subject matter in order to make teaching more meaningful and comprehensible to students.
Principle of division : particular teaching activity should have definite division based on valid reason. Teacher should be aware about the division and present content to the student in well organized step. Teacher has to divide the content into clear-cut divisions like definition, classification, etiology, pathology, clinical features, investigation, line of management, complication and prognosis and nursing management and teach each division thoroughly before proceeding to the next by giving adequate weightage to the nursing management.
Principle of revision and practice : during a teaching session teacher has to revise in the middle and in the end. Revising of summarizing the content in the end of a teaching session is called as recapitulation. In addition to recapitulation the teacher has to motivate the student to practice the learned lesion periodically to enhance easy recollection.
Principle of correlation : the function of teaching is to share knowledge development of understanding and skills. While teaching teacher has to take care of that transferred knowledge will not remain segregated and as far as correlate with previous or related knowledge.
Principle of connecting with life : relationship between the life and education is proved undoubtfully teaching as an integral part of education so all the teaching activities are connected with life. For instance the maximum attention span of human being at a stretch is 40 to 45 minutes and based on this fact usually a teaching session is planned for 45 minutes.
Qualities of good teaching.. Good teaching recognizes individual difference Good teaching is cause to learn Good teaching provide opportunities for activity Good teaching involves in guiding and learning Good teaching is kindly and sympathetic
Good teaching reduces distance between teacher and learner Good teaching is flexible Good teaching incorporate cooperativeness and suggestiveness Good teaching is democratic Good teaching provide desirable and selective information Good teaching helps the client to adjust himself in the environment
Good teaching is progressive Good teaching always consider the level of the student Good teaching leads to emotional stability Good teaching is stimulating Good teaching should be on the basis of previous knowledge of the student Good teaching is carefully planned in advance
Maxims of teaching Known to Unknown: The teacher has to correlate the learning of the student with their experience and the pervious knowledge. Teacher has to start with something which is known to the student and then proceed to unknown. For example: A class in geriatric nursing could be more convincing, if the teacher start the class by inviting the student opinion regarding the particularities or need of the old age people from their own experience and then proceeding to further detail which are unknown to them.
Si mple to Complex : It is always better to teach the most simple lesson first and then the complex one. While conducting class on pediatric nursing the teacher has to teach the simple topics like pediatric nursing and adult nursing before complex procedure and disease condition.
Concrete to Abstract : Concrete things are solid things and they can be touched with five senses. But abstract things can only be imagined. On the other hand, if we teach the students with the help of concrete objects, they will never forget the subject matter. For example: while teaching the central nervous system teacher should first teach the brain with the help of the specimen or model (concrete aspect) and then each about the function of the brain.
Analysis of synthesis: Analysis means breaking a problem into its convenient parts while synthesis means grouping of these separated parts into one complete whole. A complex problem can be made simple and easy by dividing into different parts. For example: cardiac arrest can be taught to student by splitting the components like definition, etiology, pathology, clinical features, medical or surgical management, nursing management, rehabilitation. So student can easily synthesis these aspects while caring the patient of cardiac arrest in clinical setting.
Particular to General : While teaching, the teacher should first of all take particular statements and then on the basis of those particular cases, generalization should be made. For instance the role of protein in body building and repair has to specify before generalizing the consequences of under nutrition.
Empirical to Rational : Empirical knowledge is gained through observation and experience. Rational knowledge is build upon the scientific basis is more dignified than the empirical knowledge. For example: while teaching the nursing management of hyperpyrexia to first year Bsc students teacher has to convert empirical knowledge to a rational one by explaining the scientific principle of placing the wet cloth on forehead for reducing the temperature.
Induction to Deduction: Induction means drawing a conclusion from a set of examples whereas deduction is its opposite. The teacher should proceed from induction to deduction. Psychological to Logical : While teaching, the teacher should first keep in mind the interest, aptitudes, capacities, development level etc. of the children during selection of subject matter and then on to its logical arrangement.
Actual to Representative : For teaching excellently, actual objects should be, shown to the children as far as possible. It gives them concrete learning which is more desirable. Representative things in the form of pictures, models; etc. should be used for the grownups or the seniors who are already familiar with the actual objects.
Near to Afar: Every child is able to learn well in the surroundings to which he belongs. So the child should be acquainted fully with his immediate environment. Gradually he may be taught about those things which are far from his immediate environment. This principle, if kept in view, will smoothen the leaching-learning process considerably.
Whole to Part: Whole is meaningful to student. The whole approach help the student to understand the relationship between the different part and resulting correlation makes learning easier and meaningful. For example: for teaching osteology , anatomy teacher has to give a brief description of skeletal system by mentioning its function, total number of bone etc before dealing with the different individual bone or parts of the skeletal system like clavical , humerous etc this will help the student to learn individual bone in relation to the whole skeletal system in more meaningful way.
Definite to Indefinite : In teaching, definite things should be taught first because the learner can easily have faith in them. Then afterwards he should give the knowledge of indefinite things. First year nursing student posses only some indefinite and vague ideas about nursing and a talented teacher transforms these ideas to a definite one by providing details of nursing such as definition of nursing, history of nursing, qualities of good nurse, etc.
Qualities of a good teacher.. 1. Friendliness and Congeniality The most important characteristic of a good teacher can have is to be friendly and congenial with his students. It is a plus if his students can share their problems with him, without being afraid or hesitant.

3.Deep Knowledge and a Great Education Another important characteristic of a good teacher is his knowledge and own education. There is a saying that 'a teacher is only as good as his knowledge is.' After all, he is doing a teacher's job, which is to teach. If he himself lacks in the knowledge of a certain subject that he teaches, he is never going to make a name for himself.
4. A Good Communicator One of the very important characteristics of a good teacher is his communication skills. He should be a very good speaker. This characteristic will provide benefits in several ways. For example: If his communication skills are good, he can convey his lectures with better skill and results. If he is a good speaker, his class strength increases automatically. People love to hear a person who he can speak well enough
5. A Good Listener Apart from being a good communicator, a good teacher should also have the characteristic of being an even better listener. "If speaking is silver; then listening is gold."
