what is the difference beetween a teaching approach,andteaching strategy;teaching techniques and methods?

We Answered:

A teaching approach is usually based on the philosophy behind the learning. For example, 20 years ago much of the public education community supported a whole language approach to learning reading. People that did not understand the whole languag approach jumped on the band wagon and began enforcing a bunch of ill informed rules which caused a rapid increase in illiteracy nationwide. They mistakenly thought that direct instruction in decoding and fluency were not necessary. They believed that by exposing students to good pieces of literature they would naturally pick up reading skills.

Somethimes there are different strategies for teaching the same skill or concepts. For example, when teaching reading some teachers prefer teaching students to decode individual sounds while other teachers prefer to teach linguistic patterns. sound (i) pattern (ing)

A teaching technique is the method that someone uses to
introduce and or reinforce a new concept or skills. I might use brainstorming as a technique to introduce a new topic. I might relate the new learning to prior learning or decide to use manipulatives to demonstrate an idea.

Ricardo Said:

why are strategies,methods,approaches and techniques important to teaching?

We Answered:

Importance of the teaching strategies, methods or approaches lay on the philosophy of teaching/learning. As the ultimate goal of teaching (or in a broad sense education) is students' learning therefore, the teaching approaches need to serve this purpose/goal. this is why, teaching strategies or methods have been changing as the complexities are increasing as well as being pointed out. You know that we are living in very complex societies. There are several things around us that can impact/affect teaching/learning. For example if we start from within the school, relationships of teacher-student, teachers' beliefs, students/teachers' background and socio-economic status, curriculum (books, school culture), parents role and overall the education system. If we discuss all the above-mentioned points one by one in-depth, then we will really come to know the significance of teaching methodologies/approaches in terms of students' learning.
good luck.
