LESSON 8:TEACHING WITH CONTRIVED EXPERIENCES







Contrived experiences are those which are designed and arranged closely resembling direct experiences. It is not always possible to let a student have a direct experience of all things; some contrivances such as laboratory experiments, working models, etc. are very useful. Contrary to belief, contrived experiences are usually better than direct experiences. This is because models are made less complex, see-through as also easier and safer to operate.

Examples:
·         Drama and role-playing
·         Demonstrations
·         Field Trips
·         Exhibits and Models
·         Motion Pictured and Video
·         Visual Symbols
