PRESENTATION : MASTERY LEARNING APPROACH

Hello dear readers...it is almost 5 am in the morning and I can't sleep..therefore, i was thinking 'ok..I can't sleep ...what should I do..tomorrow is Math presentation..hmm why not give a review of tomorrow's presentation in the blog..practically this could add on to the number of post in our blog so that we could beat "archimedes' group ( hehehe.. just kidding..well it is free promote to your group Narayn..hehehe)

Alright... back to the main business...yes tomorrow will be the continuation of the 4th week topic which is mainly about approaches in teaching..Our group will be doing "MASTERY LEARNING APPROACH"

Basically, mastery learning approach is something that you have to master one topic first before you could go to the next topic...thinking of this, you might think, ooh it must be time consuming to be compared to the direct expository approach. I would agree with that thought! In my point of view, mastery learning approach does consume more time in learning than the direct method. However, let us think about the effectiveness of it. This approach requires the teacher to think about his/her pupils in terms of their cognitive and affective conditions. Besides the learning is more dependent on the time the pupil is willing to take NOT the time that the teacher has to teach in a period of time.

This approach is useful in the mixed ability classroom too where the good,middle and poor pupils being placed in the same class. Teacher would cater each intelligent differently according to the level they are in. Therefore, the learning is much more effective where every child is not left behind. Everyone will be able to learn based on their ability and at the end everyone could be succeeded no matter how much time the pupils take to master all the skills.

Teacher should give the opportunity for each pupil to learn and be excellent in learning. This will effect the children life for a lifetime.

Well, all this is only the brief review of what our presentation is going to be...I hope everyone could understand the contents that we are going to present to you guys tomorrow...with that, i would like to apologize in advance for any inappropriate or incompetence information and discussion in our presentation..I hope you would not be confused with our explanation as well..we would love to hear you comments in our blog regarding your view about this topic as well as our presentation..thank you and lastly
