Here are the answers to all four questions from the examination:

1. Types and Five Objectives of Instructional Media

Types of Instructional Media:

Instructional media are tools used to facilitate learning and improve the teaching
process. They can be categorized as:

1. Audio Media: These include radio, audio recordings, podcasts, and oral
storytelling.

2. Visual Media: Examples are pictures, diagrams, charts, models, and slides.

3. Audio-Visual Media: These combine sound and visuals, such as videos, television,
and multimedia presentations.

4. Projected Media: These include overhead projectors, PowerPoint slides, and film
projectors.

5. Printed Media: Books, handouts, newspapers, and journals fall into this
category.

6. Digital/Interactive Media: These include e-learning platforms, computer-based


instruction, and virtual reality applications.

Five Objectives of Instructional Media:

1. Enhance Learning Retention: Helps students remember concepts better through


visuals and audio.

2. Encourage Active Participation: Engages learners through interactive and hands-


on experiences.

3. Facilitate Understanding of Abstract Concepts: Makes complex subjects easier to


understand with illustrations and simulations.

4. Promote Independent Learning: Allows students to explore topics at their own


pace.

5. Provide Real-Life Experiences: Simulates real-world situations through videos,


models, and practical demonstrations.

2. Elements of a Communication Model (with Illustration)

A communication model explains how information is transmitted from a sender to a


receiver. The basic elements include:

1. Sender (Source): The person or system that originates the message.

2. Message: The information, idea, or concept being communicated.

3. Encoding: The process of converting the message into symbols, words, or signals.

4. Medium (Channel): The means through which the message is transmitted (e.g.,
speech, text, video).

5. Receiver: The person or group that receives and interprets the message.

6. Decoding: The process by which the receiver understands the message.

7. Feedback: The response given by the receiver to confirm understanding.

8. Noise: Any interference that affects message delivery, such as distractions or


poor internet connection.

Illustration: A simple communication model can be drawn as follows:

Sender → Encoding → Message → Channel → Decoding → Receiver → Feedback

Example: A teacher explaining a concept (Sender) uses words and diagrams (Encoding)
on a whiteboard (Channel). The students (Receivers) interpret the information
(Decoding) and ask questions (Feedback).

3. Five Features of Programmed Instruction

Programmed instruction is a teaching method that uses a structured, step-by-step


approach to learning. Its key features include:

1. Small Step Learning: Information is divided into small, manageable units.

2. Active Learner Response: Learners must engage with the material by answering
questions or completing exercises.

3. Immediate Feedback: Correct answers are reinforced, while incorrect ones guide
the learner to retry.
4. Self-Paced Learning: Students progress at their own speed without pressure.

5. Logical Sequence: Lessons follow a structured order, from simple to complex.

Example: Computer-based training modules use programmed instruction principles,


allowing learners to progress based on their understanding.

4. Five Guidelines for Effective Use of a Whiteboard

To use a whiteboard effectively in teaching, consider the following guidelines:

1. Organize Content Clearly: Use headings, bullet points, and spacing to make
information easy to follow.

2. Use Legible Writing: Ensure handwriting is clear and large enough for all
students to see.

3. Incorporate Visual Aids: Use diagrams, charts, and color coding to enhance
understanding.

4. Engage the Audience: Encourage students to participate by asking them to write


or draw on the board.

5. Maintain a Clean Board: Erase unnecessary marks to keep content visible and
uncluttered.

By following these guidelines, teachers can maximize the effectiveness of


whiteboard instruction in the classroom.
