Introduction

Hello Friends,

Learning means acquiring meaningful knowledge. Learning plays a pivotal role in child’s overall development. According Clark & Paivio (1991) comments that, “Dual Coading Theory (DCT) explains humans behaviour and experience in terms of dynamic associative processes that operate on a rich network of modality specific verbal and nonverbal (or imagery) representation” (p.149). In fact, learning is the way to pass information to our brain. As per my teaching experience I observed that students who learn of the integrated presentations did better understanding compare to the didactic teaching methodology. Moreover, visual aids help learners to store image and relative information in their brain faster than only verbal interaction. While teaching science subject when I was teaching topic by using visual aids for instance, actual things (flower, leaves, roots etc.), flash cards, PowerPoint presentation, and experiments helps learners to understand easily. Additionally, those aids make teaching learning process more interesting. Thus, I ponder that, DCT is significantly enhance the modify the coaching practices in positive ways.

 

Thanks
