• Is there any place of old teaching methods in 21st century??

    @RUBAB-khaskheli Assuming ICT and AI tools apart, all other methods of teaching or learning, lecture, group discussion, brainstorming, hands on activities, presentation and unlimited other tools that we treat under traditional methods have been effective and efficient over the centuries. Not underestimating ICt or AI tools, education has been taught for centuries and has consistently produced magnificent results all across the globe. We should treat these methods as such. Innovations are bound to happen and improve in all areas. The basic idea is to convey the message and achieve results.

  • @RUBAB-khaskheli Traditional methods like lectures provide a structured framework for delivering information, which can be beneficial for introducing new concepts or for students who thrive in a more organized learning environment.

  • @Imamuddin-Khaskh Direct instruction, often delivered through lectures, can be effective for imparting factual knowledge and foundational skills that are essential building blocks for more advanced learning.

  • @GULZAR-ALI Traditional methods can be effective for developing core skills like reading, writing, and arithmetic, which are fundamental for all students.

  • @GULZAR-ALI Traditional methods often incorporate hands-on activities and practical exercises that enhance comprehension and make learning more engaging.

  • @RUBAB-khaskheli
    You’ve highlighted a very important balance between innovation and tradition in education. I completely agree—while 21st-century skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration are essential, traditional methods still have their place, especially where access to technology or openness to change is limited. The key is to blend both approaches effectively, respecting the context and needs of learners. Thanks for raising this thoughtful point! What do others think—how do you find the right mix in your classrooms?

  • @Mariya-Rajpar Old teaching methods still have a place in the 21st century—but not in isolation. They need to evolve, adapt, and integrate with new pedagogies. The goal isn't to choose between old and new, but to harmonize both to meet the diverse needs of today’s learners.

  • @GULZAR-ALI Use memorization as a stepping stone to analysis.

  • @Imamuddin-Khaskh Combine lecture with interactive discussion.
