DESCRIPTION
Teaching is an art as well as science. Knowledge of what constitutes effective teaching has increased significantly in recent years. Today teachers recognize that education is an interactive process, and that students need to be actively involved in tasks that are achievable, useful, relevant, and challenging if they are to respond successfully to the curriculum challenges posed for them. To make the process of instruction effective, teachers use a number of teaching aides. With the help of these aids teachers can enable the learners to improve reading and other skills; illustrate or reinforce a skill, fact, or idea, and relieve anxiety, fears, or boredom, since many teaching aids are like games. The present book aims to provide comprehensive information of various teaching aids commonly used by teachers of various levels. The functions and using methods of teaching aids and skills needed by teachers to use them effectively are also elaborately analysed. The content of the book will be immense help to practicing teachers, teacher-educators and student-teachers.
