    LB # 14 MAXIMIZING THE USE OF THE OVERHEAD PROJECTOR and THE CHALKBOARD

    1. What techniques can help us maximize the use of the overhead projector and the chalkboard?

             CHALKBOARD TECHNIQUES
    a. Sharpen your chalk to get good line quality.
    b. Stand with your elbow high. Move along as you write.
    c. Use dots as "aiming points". This keeps writing level.
    d. Make all writing or printing between 2 and 4 inches high for legibility.
    e. When using colored chalk , use soft chalk so that it can be erased easily.

    OVERHEAD PROJECTOR TECHNIQUES
    • You can show pictures and diagrams, using a pointer on the transparency to direct attention to a detail. 
    • You can use a felt pen or wax-based pencil to add details or to make points on the transparency during projection.
    • You can control  the rate of presenting information by covering a transparency with a sheet of paper or cardboard and then exposing data as you are ready to discuss each point.
    • You can superimpose additional transparency sheets as overlays on a base transparency so as to separate  processes and complex ideas into elements and present them in step-by-step order.
    • You can show three-dimensional objects from the stage of the projector .
    • You can move overlays back and forth across the base in order to rearrange elements of diagrams or problems.
               With the use of this things we can easily teach our students and we  can easily understand  by them. So we need to maximize the use of projector and chalkboard because as a teacher we need to use this things someday.

    LB # 13 TEACHING WITH VISUAL SYMBOLS

             Visual symbols include drawings, cartoons, strip drawings, diagrams, formulas, charts, graphs, maps and globes.
          A drawing may not be the real thing but better to have a concrete visual aid than nothing. To avoid, confusion, it is good that our drawing correctly represents the real thing. A first-rate cartoon tells its story meta phonically. The perfect cartoon needs no caption. The less the artist depends on words, the more effective the symbolism. The symbolism conveys the message. You can also use this as a springboard for  a lesson or a concluding activity. It depends on your purpose. Strip drawing are commonly called comic or comic strip. The strip drawing can serve as motivation and a starter of your lesson. You can obtain strip drawings from newspapers, magazines and books. Diagrams is " any line drawing that shows arrangement and relations as of parts to the whole, relative, values, origins and development, chronological fluctuation, distribution, etc."
     Types of diagram:
    • Affinity diagram
    • Tree diagram
    • Fish bone diagram
          A chart is a diagrammatic representation of relationships among individuals within an organization. We can have:
    •  time chart
    • tree or stream chart
    • flow chart
    • organizational chart
    • comparison and contrast chart
    • pareto chart
    • run chart or trend chart                                                                            There are several types of graphs
    • circle or pie graph
    • bar graph
    • pictorial graph
    • line graph
         Map is a "representation of the surface of the earth or some part of it".
                    Kinds of map:
    • Physical map
    • relief map
    • commercial or economic map
    • political map
                   By using these visual symbols your lesson can be easily understand by your students only that you must learn how to draw, sketch,make diagrams,graphs and charts. It really requires more preparation and more learning on your part.
