Alternative Sources of Instructional Materials for Effective Teaching and Learning

Abstract

In almost every instructional process, there appears to be an innovative need of instructional materials. The main purpose of every instruction is to bring about a permanent change in the behaviour of learners in a desired direction. The conventional instructional process where the teacher is the sole source of knowledge does not help to give learners the desired knowledge. The changes brought about by technological innovations which are directly and indirectly influencing and changing the way people learn and also redefining literacy have made a case for supporting instruction with materials that can influence learning positively.
