INTRODUCTION:
Programmed instruction method of teaching is an autocratic and individualized
Strategy. Its main focus is to bring desirable change in the cognitive domain of the
learner's Behavior. It got historical momentum only after the publication of “the science
of learning and art of teaching” articles by B.F. Skinner in 1954.Programmed
instruction is a highly individualised instructional strategy for the modification of
behaviour. Besides instructional purpose, it can also be employed as a mechanism of
feedback device for improving teaching efficiency.

DEFINITION:
“a progressively monitored, step-by-step teaching method, employing small units of
information or learning material and frequent testing, whereby the student must complete or
pass one stage before moving on to the next. Also called programmed learning.
OR
“A method of teaching in which the information to be learned is presented in discrete units, wi
th a correct response to each unit required before the learner may advance to the next unit.”
-(DR. V K Maheshwari,2016)

OBJECTIVES:
Major objectives of Programmed Instructions are:
• To help the student to learn by doing.
• To provide the situation to learn at his own pace.
• To help student to learn without the presence of a teacher.
• To present the content in a controlled manner and in logically related steps.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 6
PURPOSE:
Purpose of programmed instructions are:
• To manage human learning under controlled conditions.
• To promote learning at the pace of the learner.
• To present the material in small pieces.
• To provide quicker response
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 7
PRINCIPLES:
• Principle of Small Step
• Principle of Active Responding
• Principle of Immediate confirmation
• Principle of Self - Pacing
• Principle of Student - Testing.

CHARACTERISTICS LINEAR
PROGRAMMING
• Programmed Instruction is individualized
• Teaching material is carefully ordered simple to complex
• Participants or students actively involved in each step of evaluation
• Self directed learning method.

TYPES OF LINEAR PROGRAMME
• INTRODUCTORY FRAMES –
main function of introductory frame is to introduce the topic.
• TEACHING FRAMES –
main function of teaching frame is to impart new knowledge.
• PRACTICE FRAMES –
the purpose of practice frames is to practice the acquired new
behaviours through teaching frames.
• TESTING FRAMES –
the main focus of testing frames is to access as to how much have
the students learnt. these frames are related to terminal behaviours.
FEATURES OF GOOD LINEAR
PROGRAMME:
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 13
• It is accompanied with a self-explained set of instructions.
• It controls the individual difference of the learners.
• It provides reinforcement to the learners.
• It provides “Learning by Doing” situation.
• It is designed in logical sequence of content structure.
Difficult concepts can be taught effectively.
LIMITATIONS OF LINEAR
PROGRAMMING:- (CONT….)
• Lack Of Motivation
• Freedom Of Choice Is Curtailed
• Costly
• Blanks And Key Terms Are Guessed
• It Can Be Used In Limited Areas
• Searching Of Material Is Not Permitted
LIMITATIONS OF LINEAR
PROGRAMMING:- (CONT….)
• Does Not Permit Differentiation Among Responses
• Students Follow A Rigid Line Prescribed By The
Programmers
• It Is Very Difficult To Find Out Exactly The Background Of
Each Learner
• In Book Form Presentation
BRANCHING PROGRAMMING:
Origin:
in 1954, Norman Crowder, a psychologist with united state air
force was
asked to investigate the training of aircraft maintenance men.
the technicians were being
taught to “trouble shoot” or repair faults, in a bomber
navigation system. and there lies the origin of branching
programming.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 16
BRANCHING PROGRAMMING (cont.…)
EDUCATIONAL PERSPECTIVE:
After exposure to the programmed material, the student has to
discriminate a correct answer from the given multiple-choice
questions. This process is within the learner. The major
rationale for the word “intrinsic” is that the student's response
is controlled by himself internally.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 17
PRINCIPLES OF BRANCHING PROGRAMME:
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 18
• Principle of Exposition
ex. The learner should perceive the whole phenomena exposed to him.
• Principle of Diagnosis
ex. It refers to identifying the weakness of learner.
• Principle of Remediation
ex. Diagnosis provides the basis for remediation or Remedial Instructions.
STRUCTURE OF BRANCHING PROGRAMME
FRAME :
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 19
• In this strategy, content is not presented in small steps but whole unit
or concept is presented.
• The size of step may be a paragraph or two or whole page.
• The learner perceives the whole concept and tries to comprehend.
• He has to follow the Sequence Pages.
• Therefore, branching programming text is known as Scrambled Text.
FEATURES OF BRANCHING
PROGRAMME:
• Material in a frame is larger; much information is presented at each step. A step
may consist of two or more paragraphs and sometimes a full page
• Learner has freedom to choose his own path of action according to the
background of subject matter. The learner controls the exact sequence that he will
follow.
• Student is more alert and concentrates on the subject
• The programmer has ample opportunity to exploit the literary style.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 20
CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD
BRANCHING PROGRAMME:
• Individualized Instruction
• Freedom to respond
• Remedial
• Tutorial
• Branching Programmed has its roots in human training and techniques
• Branching Programming is mainly concerned with teaching and
instruction rather than learning.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 21
ADVANTAGES OF BRANCHING
PROGRAMMING :
• Teaching
• Diagnosis
• Remediation
• Reinforcement
• It is based on the principles of Problem Solving. It generates appropriate
situation of Learning.
• Scrambled text-book operates as tutorial strategy.
• The focus of scrambled text is to provide remedial instruction and teaching.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 22
LIMITATIONS OF BRANCHING
PROGRAMMING:-
• The learner may guess the correct response without understanding the subject
matter of the frame.
• Infinite branching cannot be provided. It cannot cater to the needs of the
individuals. It is very difficult to find out the total number of branches for each
individual.
• Cost of preparation is high, audio-visual equipment is costly.
• The programme needs revision after every two years which is a very costly
affair.
• Programme are the product of programmer‘s imagination and it is he who
decides diagnostic questions and level of content
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 23
ADVANTAGES OF PROGRAMMED
INSTRUCTION:
• The main emphasis is on individual differences and student’s
involvement.
• Students may learn at their own pace.
• Students are exposed only to correct responses, therefore, possibility
to commit errors is reduced.
• Reinforcement and feedback helps students to develop mastery over
the content.
26-09-2017 TEERTHANKER MAHAVEER UNIVERSITY 24
DISADVANTAGES OF
PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION:
• It is difficult to develop an instructional programme.
• There is no chance for student’s creativity.
• Development of programme is not economical.
• In the absence of teacher, students may spoil discipline of the class.
• It cannot be applied at primary level of education.
