, QUESTION 1
The teaching and learning process in Social Sciences is conducted at a micro
scale through strategies that are planned for in order to achieve lesson
outcomes. With this statement in mind, discuss the following teaching
approaches:
INTRODUCTION
Teaching strategy is teacher’s way used in teaching learning process to manipulate
the students in achieving the desired objectives effectively. Teaching strategies
include several procedures systematically that can be implemented by the teacher to
make teaching learning process become more effective and interested. It makes the
students enjoy their learning process and they are also involved in classroom
activities. It will give significant effect to the students because they are learning by
doing. In this case, teacher’s competence in applying teaching strategy has an
important role in teaching learning process. The teacher has the role not only teach
the students but also advise and guide the students through teaching strategy that is
applied. Below I will discuss the expository and inquiry learning approach to
teaching.
EXPOSITORY APPROACH
Teacher’s role is found in expository teaching strategies. In which, expository
teaching is a group of teaching strategy that involves the transmission of information
in a single direction from source to the students (one way communication). It is clear
that the teachers have to pay attention when they are applying expository teaching
strategies. Expository teaching is one of group teaching strategy that should be
applied in teaching learning process. It is basically direct instruction. A teacher is in
the front of the room lecturing and students are taking notes. Students are being told
(expository learning), what they need to know. According to Ulit et al (2004:235), in
expository strategy, the teacher is the information giver. He gives all the information
needed by the pupils, after which, he gives an evaluation or a test. It can be
explained that, expository teaching strategy is known as direct instruction in which
the teachers role as information giver. They deliver what the students need to know
by lecturing and the students can be given evaluation after the teachers transfer the
information.
Killen (2007:78) adds that teacher-centred approaches are sometimes referred to as
direct instruction, deductive teaching or expository teaching. He also states that, in
these methods of teaching, the teacher has direct control over what is taught and
how learners are presented with the information they are to learn. It means that,
expository teaching is equal with direct instruction and deductive teaching term. In
this expository teaching, the teacher controls their students by managing what
information is needed by the students to be learnt.
There are many kinds of expository teaching strategy that can be applied by the
teacher. Common examples of expository teaching are concept map, lecturer,
demonstration, presentation or telling strategy (narration, illustration, exposition,
description, and explanation), drillwork and review. Expository is dominated by
