Introduction
We have all along in Units 2 and 3 of this Module examined some methods of teaching.
Some of these methods can be enhanced by using some strategies/techniques of teaching.
There is no one method that can succeed without employing a technique or strategy.
Consequently, this unit will be dedicated to treating two techniques/strategies namely: the
questioning technique and simulation.

Objectives
At the end of this unit, you should be able to:
(i)
Define the two techniques.
(ii)
Identify when and how to use the above techniques.
(iii)
Suggest ways of improving the two techniques of teaching history.
