Theories, Principles and Models in E & T

This presentation explores the application of communication theories, principles, and models in education and training. It discusses how language and communication impact learning and development. It also examines different theories and models, such as Vygotsky's method and semiotics and process school. Additionally, it analyzes the role of communication in teaching and learning, including the use of effective language and practical examples.

Explaining the way in which principles, theories and models of
communication can be applied to learning, teaching and
assessment
Communication is refers to as act of imparting information.
Communication in context of teaching is defined as sharing
off knowledge. Language and its usage is the key element that
helps individual in differentiating themselves from other. This
is the important factor that has positive as well as negative
effect on personal and professional life. The language use by
the parents or teacher with the children has great impact on
child development process. As per theories and model

CONTD.
The Vygotskys method can be adopted by the tutor. This method
is effective as it enables development of cross distal of a
talented or student with high learning capacity to weaker
child. It allows tutor to facilitate peer assessment and built
bond with their students in order to increase communication.
This method enables tutor to make learning procedure more
interesting and enjoyable for students. The complete studied of
communication can be categorised into two schools of
thoughts these are semiotics and process school.

Theories and Model
Theories is defined as a set of principles on which the practice of
an activity is based.
Model is defined as a thing used as an example to follow or
imitate.
Some of communications theories that are associated with
teaching are:
Scientific theory- It consists of laws, facts , principles and
various approaches that are related to each other. Scientific
theory is based on assumptions that can be derived from
logical mathematical process and big set of empirical
legislations

CONT.
Philosophical and Humanistic theory-this theory
develops a set of assumptions or beliefs which
emphasizes on explaining the thing that ought to be. It
has focus analysing the views of reality and their place.
This theory can be applied to teaching and learning. This
theory is based on the values. Philosophical and
Humanistic theory assist the teacher in developing the
understanding that which should be done and what action
should be taken to make student learn about the specific
subject matter.

CONT.
Mac Donald's theory- This hypothesis
considered Curriculum as the part of social
system that assist teacher in developing a plan
for instructions. According to this theory there
is difference between teaching and instructions
which is refers to as personality system. In this
system teacher facilitate various activities in
order to make student gain knowledge about
the subject.

CONT.
Valuation theory-This hypothesis involve determination or
identification of suitable ways in order to attain desired goals.
In the context of teaching the desired objectives of the tutor is
to make children learn about the specific thing and gain
knowledge about particular subject matter.

Analysing the theories, principle and models
of communication
It has been analysed from the Models that it cannot be applied to
public speaking. This model has highlighted the five important
elements of communications these are effect , occasion,
speaker, speech and audience. These variables are to be
considered by the tutor when drafting or preparing the speech.
As teacher of practical subject the tutor has to adopt various
resources. As this activity will assist them in promoting
integrating in the classroom and developing as well as
maintaining effective learning environment

CONT.
• It has been analysed from the Philosophical and Humanistic
theory has assisted the teacher in identifying the various
activities that can be conduct to make student learn about the
subject. According to this theory children lean thing by
observing things or activities surrounding them. It has been
identified from the research that the objective of teacher in to
help the student in learning and development procedure. It has
been identified from the Mac Donald's theory that there is
difference between instructing and teaching

CONT.
• According to various models and theories , it has been concluded
that the teacher should emphasize on using effective
communication language as this will assist them in transmitting the
accurate message or information to students. Teacher can use this
approaches and model as this will help them in selecting the
appropriate method of teaching and preparing the content that are
to be taught to students in the classrooms. It has been analysed
from the Philosophical and Humanistic theory the teacher is
required to include real or practical examples in teaching. As this will
support tutor in making the student learn in easier and systematic
manner. It will also allow them to ensure that the student has
understood the message, fact or message that teacher want to
convey
