Deductive teaching strategy

Today we learnt about Deductive teaching strategy using deductive strategy. To me it is realy boring compared with the inductive teaching strategy because sir was teaching/speaking and we the students were just listening and not participating fully in the learning.
Though todays class was boring, we experienced what the deductive teaching strategy is. And as a teacher, i will be using this strategy once in a blue moon.

Here we learnt that it is the strategy where the students are leaded from known to unknown, abstract to concrete or complex to simple and the main purpose is to help the students with learning disabilities to enhance their learning.
Here the students depends on teachers thereby limiting their thinking ability.

It consists of four phases namely,
1. presentation of abstraction,
2. teachers illustrate with example,
3. students gives examples of concept,
4. and apply them in new situation and students restate the concept or definition that they have learnt.

Here the advantages are, it is not consuming, most of the topics could be taught using this strategy and it involve all levels of questions.
However,  it is a teacher centered learning and the students are not actively involved in learning.

In this strategy the role of the teacher is to make the plan and prepare detailed information including the materials, to provide guidence and scaffolding and to do most of the works as it is a teacher centered learning.
