Explicit and implicit teaching

-Objective: Understanding the use of polite language in conversation. - Instead of directly teaching what phrases are polite, the teacher might model polite behavior during interactions. - The students observe how the teacher says "please" and "thank you" and eventually learn to use those phrases themselves through imitation.

Implicit teaching

Foster Creativity and Adaptability

Help learners think flexibly and apply knowledge in various situations, as they learn by observing or experimenting, rather than following rigid steps.

Encourage Engagement and Exploration

Foster a deeper engagement with the material, as students actively participate in the discovery process

Contextual Learning

Promote learning in real-life or meaningful contexts, making it more relatable and transferable

Develop Social and Cognitive Skills

Through observation and experience, students develop interpersonal, linguistic, or conceptual skills naturally

Encourage Critical Thinking

Allow students to discover and infer rules or concepts on their own, fostering independent thought and problem-solving skills

on the other hand, involves learning that is less direct. It happens through exposure, modeling, or discovery, where learners figure out concepts or skills without being directly told. The focus is on learning through context or experience.

Example

- Objective: Teaching students how to solve a math problem. - The teacher clearly explains the steps: first, identify the numbers, next, perform the addition, then write down the answer. - They demonstrate by solving a sample problem on the board and then guide the students through several more examples. - Students practice with feedback.
