There is no single best teaching method. Effective methods consider student and teacher differences as well as instructional objectives and subject matter. Teachers should choose between deductive and inductive methods. Deductive begins with the abstract while inductive starts with the concrete. Both have advantages and disadvantages depending on coverage, engagement, thinking skills, time, and teacher skill required. The ideal method works for students and teacher.

THERE IS NO
SINGLE BEST
METHOD
• The perfect method is one that simply WORKS. There is no one
teaching method that is best because students are very different
from one another and so are teachers. For a teaching method to
work, it has to be appropriate for both the students and the teacher.
 FACTOR TO CONSIDERED IN THE
CHOICE OF METHOD
• Instructional Objectives
• Nature of the subject matter
• Learners
• Teachers
• School policies
 TWO MAIN METHODS OF
TEACHING
1. Deductive Method – begins with what is abstract, general, unknown
to the learners and proceeds to what is concrete, specific, and what
is known to the learners.
2. Inductive Method - starts with what is concrete, specific, and what
is known to the learners and ends with what is abstract, general, &
unknown.
DEDUCTIVE METHODS
• ADVANTAGES:
a) Coverage of a wider scope of the subject matter
b) No bother on the part of the teacher to lead learners to the
formulation of the generalization or rule.
• DISADVANTAGES:
a) It is not supportive to the principle that learning is an active process.
b) Lesson appears uninteresting at first.
INDUCTIVE METHODS
• ADVANTAGES:
a) The learners are more engaged in the teaching- learning process.
b) Learning becomes more interesting at the outset because we begin
with the experiences of our students.
c) It helps the development of our learners’ Higher- Order-Thinking-
Skills (HOTS).
INDUCTIVE METHODS
• DISADVANTAGES:
a) It requires more time and so less subject matter will be
covered.
b) It demands expert facilitating skills on the part of the
teacher.
