Display an additional quality that

   appeals to the since of touch-that 

   is, a tactual quality.

Gives a right understanding of real

    things.

3D  INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS 

                                                        Are useful in the event that real life materials are 

                                         impossible  to be brought in the Classroom to provide

                                        students with certain amount  of direct, purposeful, rich

                                                 and meaningful of teaching experiences. 

                                              Are usually constructed to allow handling by the  

                                       students, except does which are Too large, too costly, to

                                                                   rare, or to fragile. 

Pioneers in Education in their  Education Theory

1.Jean Piaget

                

                  use the methods of instruction through the individualize program, exploration and experimentation with concert materials that helps

   the child to learn more about the environment .

             With use of real things, a child is able to compare or contrast  things  and make perception about his environment.

 

2. Maria Montessori

            using real things help promote motor and sensory skills

3. Jerome Bunner

                  

                Proposes that instruction should proceed from direct experiences   ( real things)  to iconic representation (pictures) to symbolic representation  (words) for achieving

  mastery of task.

         OBJECTS and SPECIMENS

Objects…

        

         Are concrete materials such as plants, animals, tools and artefacts used in providing direct experience.

 

 

Specimens…

         Is a part of aspects of some items that is a typical sample of characters of others in its same class  or group.

 

• in biology, a specimen is an individual animal, part of

     an animal, plant, parts of a plant, or  Microorganism  

     used as representative to study the properties of the

     whole population of  that species  or subspecies.

Points of Consider of Teaching 

• Develop a purpose for using them. 
• Provide opportunities ton learners to work with or to    manipulate the  specimens so that they can  consider    concepts, process and principles  by themselves.
• Present just enough  specimens or object at a time so as     not to overwhelm the learner.
• Presents the materials in a dramatic way so as to arouse    and sustain the interest  of the learners .                                      

      ADVANTEGES

• These are less abstract and more concrete
• It attracts learners  attention
• Learners become more familiar with objects                                       
  
  
  LIMITATION
  
  
  • Needs a bigger stories
  • Prone to possible damage
  • Some object have limitation in availability and may not be easy to be found.                     
    
    
    Models and  Mock-ups
      
    MODELS
    
    
    are scaled replicas of real object.
    Show the totality of a thing or a process
    Examples:
        models cars
        airplanes
        house
      Solar system
    
    
    • PICTURES 
    
     

    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    
    MOCK-UPS
    
    
    • Are special types of models which are focused on a specific part of a whole object and are workable
    • It is intended to show the essential parts which are made  detachable
      
      
      
      
      TYPES:
      
      
      1.Solid Models- are mainly used for recognizing external features as in the case of globes and puppets
      2. Cross-section Model/cut away  Models- Show the internal structures
      3. Constructional Model- which can be assembled and disassembled to show relationship of parts to whole.
      4. Working Models- indicates how the things being represented operates 
         
      
      
              ADVANTEGES:  
      
      
       Allow learners to examine models or mock-ups  which
          may not be easy in the real object 
      Functional model/mock-ups allow learners to handle
          and operate 
      After presentation, model can be left on display for a
          period  of times and allows learners display for a
          period of times and allows learners to independently  
          study the item at their own convenience 
      Can provide learning experiences that real objects 
          cannot provide. 
      Working models can illustrate  basic operations of a  
           real device and provide important details
      
      
       WHEN TO USE:
      
      
      When reality is too small .
      When reality is inaccessible (past and futuristic events): 
           and when distance is impossible to bridge.
      When reality is to dangerous (like viewing an
           erupting volcano)
      When reality is unreliable (weather and other
           climatic conditions).
      When reality is too abstract (face relationship,
           mathematics)
      
      
      DISADVANTEGES
      
      
      It may be more expensive that extra care is needed.
      
      
      Some models which are too big may be difficult to
           handle for the actual lecture.
      If models are built to scale. It could be time consuming.
      It might distort some real objects.
       
       
       DIORAMA
      
      
      The term diorama is a Greek origin which means 
      “to see through”.
      Diorama is  a three-dimensional representation of events, ideas or concepts  against a scenic background..
      
      
      
      
      
      It is also known as a meaningful exhibit in boxes or cases, which are portable. It is a miniature scene in three-dimensional treatment that is meant to replicate reality and cause students to think creatively and aesthetically.
       
       

      
       
       
       
       
       
       
       
      
      
      
      
       
      •A three dimensional representation of events,
         ideas or concepts against a scenic Background.
      •Are portable meaningful exhibit in boxes or
         cases.
      •A miniature scene in 3D treatment that is      
         meant to replicate reality and cause students to think creatively.
      
      
      Four Principal Parts:
      
      
      • The case or stage
      • The painted background
      • The three-dimensional middle in foregrounds
      • The figures, constructions, and modeled objects that are placed in the case.
