Strategy Strategy usually requires some sort of planning. You'd probably use strategy when faced with a new situation, ie. the strategy to win a game. A plan of action designed to achieve an overall aim. Strategy means a method. Such as when playing a football game, "That was a great strategy! It always works!" or when playing a video "Ok, our strategy is to go around the enemy". Your example, "Whats your strategy for setting goals?", is ok to say but some people might not know what you mean. Strategy is almost like the word 'tactic'. Example : A) What tactics do you use? B) My teams tactics are going around.
Technique Technique is a procedure or skill for completing a specific task. I'd imagine this would be used for predictable events, ie. solving a long division equation. Teaching Techniques: These are the little sneaky tricks we all know and use to get the job done in the classroom. Teachers all over have systems of rewards/punishments for students who comply and exceed or defy and lag behind. If a classroom is becoming distracted a teacher may use the technique of silent reading or shared reading to try to rope them in again. Another may choose to use a quick physical activity to distract their distraction and get them all to do the same thing at the same time - then quickly direct them back to work. This is really where someone with loads of experience can help another teacher improve her abilities. These are the tricks that can be taught to another teacher. Sort of "I find this really helps during math class" type of suggestions. Also a lot of the in-services and workshops all teachers attend offer little tidbits of games, activites, and actions that teachers can use to achieve certain goals in the classroom. Everything from sending a note home to mom and a trip to the principal's office to giving out 'points' forgood behaviour are examples of techniques teachers can use to keep ahead of the pack. Method Method is a way something is done. Perhaps used for routine tasks. Teaching Method: Refers to how you apply your answers from the questions stated in Teaching Approaches to your day to day instruction in front of your students. Do you follow the textbooks and curricula to the letter with everything? Are you more of a Socratic teacher and prompt discussion by asking questions to lead students to understanding? Do you advocate learning by doing? Are your students expected to simply listen attentively and take notes (not that any student really does that)
with the hopes that they can memorize the facts for assessment? This is not really a question of 'what works for you' but what actual practices and procedures of teaching do you prefer and come most naturally to you? Approach An approach is treating something in a certain way. Experiments must be approached the same way to repeat. Teaching Approaches: I would say that this is the your own personal philosophy of teaching. What is the nature of education? What is the role of the teacher, the student, the administration, the parents? To be an effective teacher, does one need to strive to be authoritarian, to be autocratic, or is the best way to engender a sense of trust and familiarity, to be a 'educating/leading friend' to your students. To understand one's personal teaching approaches, one must first look to answer these types of questions. And of course, your opinion will change as time goes on - and it may vary depending on the students you're teaching.

Methods, Techniques and Strategies

If you search the internet for teaching methods or instructional methods you will find thousands of descriptions of activities these are called methods. Sometimes they are also called strategies or techniques, and no doubt you will find a good variety of suggestions for activities in teaching procedures to use. But for your work with this program, we prefer to clarify the terms prior to looking at other aspects. This is done so that you can make reasonable decisions in your daily teaching routine.
What is a method?
A method is a description of the way that information or a behavior is carried forward or consolidated during the instructional process.
It is classified after the type of interaction in the classroom:
no interaction - one way communication
teacher centered interaction group centered interaction
Examples

"no interaction": lecture "teacher centered interaction": interactive lecture "group centered interaction": group work
What is a technique?
A technique is a detailed list of rules or a guideline for any (teaching) activity. It is based on the description of steps, or a set of do's and donts, and can often be linked to a method or strategy. Examples
With mind mapping you apply guidelines for devising content in a holistic way. This is a technique that can be used in an individual working situation, in a group work, or by the teacher as a means of demonstrating something.
Brainstorming is a group centered interaction method. The brainstorming technique describes a way of collecting ideas or information in a creative and uninhibited way.
What is a strategy?
A strategy defines the basic procedure of how the content is elaborated during the teaching process. There are two possible alternatives: 1. The cognitive approach The cognitive approach is expository, as information is given in a structured and organized process (top-down). The students role in this is passive, consuming and breathing in. The teacher is the constitutive element: he informs, tells, shows, asks, correcs, etc.
2. The affective approach The affective approach is based on discovering, and uses the curiosity of the student to let him find out something on his own. There is little or no information given, just an issue to explore. Students have to be active and inquisitive to solve the problem. The teacher is not involved. In this student centered strategy, students learn by doing, by experiencing, and by observing.
