Higher Education Commission, 2012. — 95 p.This course is an introduction to teaching methods used in primary schools.
Teaching methods are often divided into two broad categories: teacher-centred methods (also called direct instruction) and learner-centred methods (also called indirect instruction or inquiry-based learning). An effective teacher knows several methods, some teacher-directed and others learner-directed. From among these methods, a teacher selects the one method or combination of methods most likely to achieve a particular lesson's objectives with a particular group of students.

Because teaching and learning interact, a course about teaching must also be about learning. The content and structure of the course is based on two strong claims about learning. First, learning results from what a student already knows, thinks, and does -and only from these actions of the student's mind. A teacher enables students to learn by influencing what the student does to learn but the student has to do it. Second, as students progress through school they should learn to become their own teachers. That is, students should learn how to learn using their teachers as models.

高等教育委员会，2012年。- 95页。本课程是对小学中使用的教学方法的介绍。

教学方法通常分为两大类：以教师为中心的方法（也叫直接教学）和以学习者为中心的方法（也叫间接教学或探究式学习）。一个有效的教师知道几种方法，有些是教师指导的，有些是学习者指导的。从这些方法中，教师选择一种方法或方法的组合，最有可能在特定的学生群体中实现某一课程的目标。

因为教和学是相互影响的，所以关于教学的课程也必须是关于学习的。课程的内容和结构是基于两个关于学习的强烈主张。首先，学习的结果来自于学生已经知道的、思考的和做的--而且只来自于学生的这些思想行动。教师通过影响学生的学习行为使学生能够学习，但学生必须这样做。第二，随着学生在学校的进步，他们应该学会成为自己的老师。也就是说，学生应该学会如何以教师为榜样进行学习。
