     Contrived Experiences



   As i have learned in this lesson, in contrived experiences we make use of a representative models or mock ups of reality when it is not possible to bring in the classroom. It is very helpful specially to the students for them to understand better a certain thing. It is not enough telling the students what a certain object is like. It is better if they will see a model that would represent it in the best way.

    for instance, showing the student what a world is like. Of course it is very impossible for you to bring the world to the class. IN order for them to see what the world is like, you will bring a globe(representation of the world). You will let them discover different places, their distance to one another, their location, their geography and many others. Students would not find it difficult and they will learn more and it is exciting to them too. Ther are may other ways of making use of these contrived experiences.


      As future teacher, one must know the different contrived experiences to be able to use to students for better and effective learning process.
