Methodology: theory and practice of teachingj
Abstract
This article explores the dynamic relationship between teaching methodology and its practical application in the classroom. By examining established theoretical frameworks, such as constructivism, behaviorism, and cognitivism, we delve into the principles that underpin effective teaching practices. We then analyze specific methodologies like inquiry-based learning, project-based learning, and differentiated instruction, highlighting how these methods translate theoretical concepts into actionable strategies that engage students, promote critical thinking, and foster deeper understanding. Ultimately, this article aims to equip educators with the tools and knowledge necessary to bridge the gap between theory and practice, creating more impactful and enriching learning experiences for all students.
