This document discusses laboratory teaching methods in science. It identifies two major types of laboratory work: situations where students work informally in pairs or groups with shared equipment, and demonstrations by the teacher to illustrate principles. The major goals of laboratory work are to teach observational and manual skills, improve scientific inquiry methods, and develop problem-solving abilities. Correct laboratory teaching methods include student preparation, explanations by the teacher, conducting experiments safely and properly handling equipment, observing and explaining results, writing reports, and safety. Advantages include hands-on learning, developing reasoning and observation skills, and preparing students for real-life problem solving. Disadvantages are that it is not economical of time and materials.

Laboratory Teaching Methods This methods is one of the important methods of teaching science and it forms an integral part of effective science teaching. Under this methods , teachers encourages the students to derive various scientific laws and principle on their own by getting personally involved in the experiment work.
2 Major Types a. Situation where students work in the laboratory- in this situation students work informally in pairs or groups where equipment cannot go round all students individually. b. Demonstration- is a process of presenting or establishing facts or principles. It is a procedure of doing or performing something in the presence of others or either as a means of showing them how to do it or illustrating a principle.
MAJOR GOALS OF LABORATORY. WORKS Teaching Manuals and Observational skills relevant to the subject Improving understanding of methods of scientific inquiry Developing problem solving and doing by self skills.
CORRECT METHODS OF TEACHING IN LABORATORY 1. Self Preparation 2. Right Explanation 3. Starting Experiments 4. Handling instruments 5. Explaining observations 6. Writing reports 7. Lab safety
Advantages 1. Students learn by doing and come in contact with raw data or materials object in teaching learning process. 2. Develops the power of observation and reasoning. 3.Develops the scientific attitudes
4. Gives an understanding of what research is and how to apply the scientific method of research 5. Gives training in organizing data gathered from real materials object and how these objects are manipulated to attain the objectives. 6. Since students come in contact with real life situations, it can be a preparation for solving real life problems.
Disadvantages 1. Uneconomical way of learning in time and material. 2. Does give much training in verbal expression and when the time equipment is used, most of the time, its use becomes mechanical, i.e used without much thinking anymore
SOME LABORATORY TEACHING METHODS Students learn by their own efforts. Demonstration methods 際際滷 Booklets show process, complex procedure, and complicated apparatus Tape booklets, methods of calculation Wall Charts Video Recording Computer Simulate
LAB SAFETY TIPS Think safety first Know emergency responses Know what your working with Use the smallest possible amounts Follow all safety procedures Report dangerous activity or situatons Store and handle hazardous materials safety If you dont know ASK! THANK YOU..
