dc.description.abstract | According to a research done by Cobun in 1968, it was concluded that during learning, one remembers 10% of what is read, 20% of what is heard, 30% of what is seen, 50% of what is heard and seen, 70% of what one says and 90% of what one says and actually do [1]. Therefore for the teaching to be fruitful, the learning experiences have to pass through a series of sensory routes, i.e. through eyes (what we see), ears (what we hear), nose (what we smell), tongue (what we taste) and skin (what we touch). Teaching aids, as the name suggests, help the teacher by providing these multiple sensory experiences and convey the teachings in an effective and efficient manner. Thus teaching aids act as an integral and unavoidable part of the teaching process. This report aims to provide insights on how to leverage modern technology to develop teaching aids keeping in mind the Indian population. The study compares modern time teaching aids and what is the impact on the learning process. This quote by Confucius that we forget what we hear, but we remember what we see and finally we understand what we actually do sums up how effective use of teaching aids can impact on one's learning process. | en_US |
