4. Abstract

The paper presents a conceptual model for thinking about the process of teaching and learning based on how teachers respond to the question: “What do you mean by teaching?”

There emerge four basic theories of teaching:

  • There is the transfer theory, which treats knowledge as a commodity to be transferred from one vessel to

another.

  • There is the shaping theory, which treats teaching as a process of shaping, or moulding students to a

predetermined pattern.

  • Thirdly there is the travelling theory which treats a subject, as a terrain to be explored with hills to be

climbed for better viewpoints with the teacher am the travelling companion or expert guide.

  • Finally, there is the growing theory, which focuses more attention on the intellectual and emotional

development of the learner.
