LESSON 6

USING AND EVALUATING INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS

SUMMARY:

          To ensure that instructional materials serve their purpose in instruction, we need to observe some guidelines in their selection and use. The materials that we select must:

     v  Give a true picture of ideas they present  

     v  Contribute to the attainment of the learning objective

     v  Be appropriate to the age, intelligence and experience of the learners

     v  Be in good and satisfactory condition

     v  Provide for a teacher’s guide

     v  Help to develop the critical and creative thinking powers of students

     v  Be worth the time, expense and effort involved

   For optimum use of the instructional material, it is necessary that the teacher prepares:

      v  Herself

      v  Her students

      v  The instructional material

      v  And thus, follow up

  REFLECTION:

               Teachers should know what and how to use instructional media appropriately because in her hands lies the future of her students.and the very important of all teacher should prepare herself or should master her lesson because no matter what kind of instructional material she use, no matter how superior it is, it can never replace the teacher.
