PRINCIPLE OF ACTIVE INVOLVEMENT

Group 1Abellano, Jeraldyn Leron, GernadenRojas, RoberoseSubang, Archie

Definition:

This implies that for learning to take place, the student must be focus or engaged directly with the activity or task where he may draw knowledge, concepts, principles, attitudes, skills or habits.

Views: This is in consonance with the principle of self-activity by Froebel which states that learning is the result of the activity of the child himself. The student should take an active role in the search of knowledge. She should not be made to watch or to observe what is happening. He should contribute his ideas or concepts to solve issues.

In the same manner as when the student wants to learn to work on the computer, he should actually have hands on activity in its operations.One cannot learn to solve mathematical problems unless he tries to undergo the process by himself.

With educational technology, students can be given various materials from realia to contrived experiences; from pictures to worksheets; projectors and computers and software to keep them engage and active in the quest for knowledge.The various modalities for learning can be utilized at the same time with concrete experiences provided by the various media of instruction.

Other views:

Students are involved in more than listening.Less emphasis is place in transmitting information and more on developing student’s skills.

Students are involved in higher- order thinking (analysis, synthesis, evaluation).Students are engaged in activities ex. Reading, discussing, writingTeachers place greater emphasis on students exploration of their own attitudes and values.

ThankYouFor
