Comparison of Strengths and Weaknesses of
Information Processing Model and Behavioural Model of Teaching
and Complement of Both Theories
Information Processing ModelInformation Processing Model of
Memory – the process of learning, memory and forgetting.
Gagne’s Information Processing Model – explained how people obtain information through learning process.
Expository Teaching Model – a way of presentation of information or learning contents to pupils directly in the classroom.
Inquiry Teaching Model – the process of using questionnaire or procedures to derive answer or conclusion from questions or problems of inquiry posed.
Behavioural Model
•Direct Instruction Model – teacher demonstrates the
ways and steps to perform a certain activity in the class.
• Mastery Learning - theory and practice of using remedial teaching based on the feedback of the performance of pupils to assist pupils to achieve the learning objectives.
• Programmed Instruction Model – the application of technology and computer system in the teaching process.
• Simulation – occurs in a controlled condition and is purposely created to resemble the actual situation.
Comparison of Strengths and Weaknesses of
Behavioural Model and Information Processing
Model
Behavioural Model Information Processing Model
Effective learning process especially in subjects such as Mathematics
Efficient learning process can be conducted in subjects such as Science.
Learner responses effectively to their learning process
Encourages and develops students creative and critical thinking skills
Teacher plans the class lessons and structured management.
The learning process makes students to participate actively
Enhance memory memorizing process.
Simplification of the memorizing process by summarizing the lesson or knowledge learned.

Behavioural Model Information Processing Model
Teacher-centered Student-centered.
Students do not have chance to develop their creative and critical thinking skills
Requires time for students to think and analyze the learning process.
Reinforcement are done regularly and may not be effective
Rewards encourages students to learn and contribute in the learning process
Students learn passively Teacher may not be able to structure the lesson well
Complement of Behavioral Model
and Information Processing
Model
Students should be motivated to be an independent learner in order to help them to learn and understand their learning
process better.
Behavioral Model Information Processing Model
Teacher gives direct instructions
Students do their inductive thinking
Learners learn through teacher instructions and demo
students explore and discover new knowledge through their findings
Students goes through dependent learning process
Students goes through independent learning process
For example: Experiments in science subject Photosynthesis experiment
Teacher instructs his or her students to work in group in order to formulate their thinking skills.
Teacher serves as an instructor and facilitator as students do their learning process.
The learned topic is also summarized and presented by students in graphic organizers.
Behavioral Model Information Processing Model
Prevents students from developing their thinking skills
Develops students creative and critical thinking skills
Learning Process is not effective as students acts as passive learners
Effective learning process through graphic organizers
For example: Group work in Language
Subjects
Point of view of students regarding a topic are important so that teacher can evaluate students understanding on
what they have learned.Questioning and sharing of ideas are vital in developing
students understanding.
Behavioral Model Information Processing Model
Direct input of knowledge by teacher
Inquiry training
Teacher centered Student centered
Passive learning – one way learning
Active learning – two ways learning
For example: Maths QuizApplication of formula
The plan of learning lesson is done through the strategy given by behavioural model so that the teacher are able to
control the class management.
Behavioral Model Information Processing Model
Teacher plans the lesson plan and plans the flow of the learning process
Students are able to decide on topics that they are going to learn
Highly structured and good class management
Poorly structured and bad class management
