Who has suggested four steps of teaching as planning, organizing, leading and controlling?  Correct Answer I. K. Davies

Ivor. K. Davies has given a modern concept of management of teaching-learning which is based on the modern theory of organization. As his teaching concept is based on an organization model he called teachers as managers because they first organize teaching activities and then perform those activities in the teaching-learning process.

The Four Steps Suggested by I.K. Davies:

  • Planning: Before going to the classroom, teachers analyze the content or topic into its elements which are arranged in a logical sequence. The planning is an important step of managing teaching-learning.
  • Organizing: The learning sources and organized by the teacher so that he can achieve the objectives successfully. Effective and economical resources are used. The teacher has to decide on teaching strategies, teaching aids, and tactics of teaching.
  • Leading: The teacher leads the students to motivate them to achieve learning objectives efficiently. The teacher encourages and praises the students-activities and behaviours so that they can learn by being active and learning objectives can be achieved.
  • Controlling: The teacher controls the whole teaching-learning process to know the effectiveness of the learning program.

Hence, from the above-mentioned points it becomes clear that I.K. Davies has suggested four steps of teaching as planning, organizing, leading, and controlling.

Note:  Bloom’s taxonomy is a hierarchical organization of cognitive objectives. Bloom classify learning objectives into three domains, cognitive, affective, and sensory domain.
