How to write a technique

Have you developed a system of classes that allows you to solve educational problems that before you were solved with much less efficiency or were not solved at all? In order for others to use your experience in their work, write a methodology. Obviously, you already have methodological developments that need to be put together. It is advisable that these developments have already been tested. In this case, you will know exactly what specific, and not hypothetical, results of these or those techniques indicated in the methodology. Actually, any technique is a combination of such techniques aimed at solving certain pedagogical problems.

Make a plan for the methodology. It should include an introductory part, a breakdown by periods of study or by stages of activity. Think about which existing methodological developments should be included in each section, which of them have already been tested, and which ones are yet to come.

2

In the introductory part, indicate what goals can be achieved using your methodology. Goals should be for the whole course as a whole, and for each period of time, and for each individual lesson. Write down the novelty of your methodology and how it differs from previous methods, if any. If no one has dealt with this issue at all, indicate why you were interested in this topic and why this technique is needed.

3

Any technique should answer two questions: what needs to be done and how to do it. The answers to these questions should be devoted to all parts of the methodology. Each part should tell about some stage of activity. For example, in the teaching methodology for drawing preschool children in each part, it is told what the teacher teaches children throughout the year, every quarter, every month and in each lesson, what preliminary work should be before each lesson, what materials the children are taught to use in that or another stage. In the same way, it is necessary to build any other methodology.

4

At the beginning of each section, indicate what goals and objectives are at this stage of work, what a person working on this method should know, and what those with whom he works according to the principles you have proposed should already know. Indicate in general what techniques you need to use at this stage of work and why. Divide the section into separate chapters on smaller work steps or more limited time periods. In the pedagogical methodology, as a rule, the topics of individual classes are also given, indicating the methods used, visual materials, preliminary work, etc. It is appropriate to give detailed notes of lessons and classes. Those who will work according to your method may come up with their own topics, but they will solve the same problems, so they just need an example.

5

Prepare visual samples. If these are materials that are produced industrially, give them a general list and a separate one for each lesson. If these are your own developments, it is necessary to attach photographs of models or drawings to the methodology. For the methodology that is supposed to be published on the Internet, you can prepare and archive a computer presentation that your followers will download from your site.

6

At the end of the work, indicate the list of references. For small methodological developments devoted to the solution of any one specific problem, this may not be necessary. When writing large techniques, this is desirable to do, because in any case, you used the works of your predecessors at least to understand what they were wrong with.

Useful advice

At the end of each section, try to indicate the expected result. If you have already tested some methodological developments, you can tell in the application about the initial and final experiments and diagnostics.
