9.2 Operations of Teaching

The above three stages have specific activities through which teacher completes his teaching work.

These are explained as below:
I. Teaching Operation in Pre-active Stage
Teachers are required to pre-stage the following actions

(1) Formulation of Goals—The teacher fixes the goals of learning before entering in the classroom.

The objectives are defined in terms of practical changes. Here, he decides as to at what level of
sophistication or abstraction he is going to fix up the goals.

(2) Selection of Content—Teacher selects content or course based on teaching goals. At the time of
the selection of content, its nature, level, format, language and symbols as well - with the level of
students, age etc are taken care of. Teacher decides what lessons to teach and why teach, how was
the students’ prior knowledge, what level of motivation and how the assessment will be provided.
(3) Styles of Teaching—After the selection of content, teacher decides how and in which style the
selected content should be taught. Teacher sorts the different points of lesson in a psychological and
consistent manner so that students can learn it more easily.
(4) Selection of Teaching Strategies—In this stage, teacher provides knowledge based on student’s
age, maturity, capabilities etc. and also thinks, which array composition should be used for teaching
student so that they can easily learn. All training institutions provide knowledge subject composition
because teachers can select appropriate composition and teaching can be done in a proper manner
(5) Selection of Teaching Tactics—Before entering the classroom, teacher should decide that which
teaching tips, techniques and supporting material will be used by him to clarify the different points
in the content. Also he should decide when to ask questions in the classroom, when to lecture and
at what time which audio-video material will be used. The teacher must plan in advance how to
evaluate the teaching and through what techniques
“In pre-active phase, teacher selects objectives, plans the curricula, arranges the classroom and
studies the readiness of the pupils.” —Jackson, 1966.
II. Operations of Teaching during Inter-active Stage
Inter-active stages include all the activities of classroom. The major activities are—
(1) Sizing-up the Class—Teacher puts a cursory glance at the students sitting in the classroom as he
enters in the classroom. Thus he comes to know the sensation of class size, where good and students
are sitting in the classroom, from where he will be supported in teaching process and who will not
be able to support him. Thus he takes the physical planning of the class.
On the other hand, students also try to understand, how much qualified he is and can he teach with

effectiveness.

Teacher should be aware in the classroom. Teacher’s gestures, costumes, speaking
etc., should be effective, only then the student can be impressed and learn
something new.
