ANALYSIS OF TRADITIONAL METHOD OF TEACHING
LIMITATIONS
ü Teaching in classroom using chalk and talk is “one way flow” of information
ü Teachers often continuously talk for an hour without knowing students 
                                                    response  and feedback.
ü The material presented is only based on lecturer notes and textbooks.
ü There is insufficient interaction with students in classroom.
ü More emphasis has been given on theory without any practical and real 
                                                        life time situations.
.
         ü Learning from memorization but not understanding.

INNOVATIVE METHODS
TEACHER THE GREATEST 


  INNOVATOR
        Anyone who stops learning is old, whether 

at twenty or eighty. 




 Anyone who keeps 

learning stays young.



 To teach is to learn twice

Teachers should guide without dictating, 

and participate without dominating




The critical factor is not class size but 

rather the nature of the teaching as it 

affects learning.





LEARNING NEVER ENDS
