Maturation has a big role on how the students learn in classroom, so the researchers consider year level in this study. In every year level we have different ages of a student and different point of views in life, the researchers decided to disassociate the respondents by age and by year level. According to Judith Smith (2008) mature students study full-time, part-time or are distance learners, and in this respect are indistinguishable from younger learners. However, they are more likely to study part-time higher education than younger age groups.
These are the variables under the characteristics of deductive teaching approach:
New Concepts In this study new concepts is included in the characteristic of deductive teaching approach. Through

In the different approach that a teacher can use we can’t make sure that the concept that the students acquired is direct, through the deductive teaching approach students can learn direct concept. As stated by J.A. Ramos (2003) it says that “Through deductive teaching approach the students gets ready made information and make use of it”. As what Ramos stated the teacher gives the information and those concept that are from the teachers are direct because they already studied and examine the concept than the other approach that it lets the students firsthand the concept and apply it. If the students acquire direct concepts it can enable them to give response on the usage of the concept because if the given is direct you will just do apply it, another is if students acquire knowledge or concept that is direct it can enable them to perform some of the task with their own selves because if they know how to execute they can apply and manage the activities to attain skills. …show more content…
Lefkowitz(1988) stated that” Knowledge assimilation requires an understanding of how the new information corresponds to the already contained knowledge”. Through assimilation students will be able to relate past knowledge to acquired knowledge. The deductive teaching approach will let the students connects the relation of the acquired and past knowledge the students will determine the similarities of the knowledge and trough that they can relate and determine the essence of the knowledge. Through assimilation students can determine new ideas and concepts by relating what is acquired and assimilate after relating and analyzing the given concept students can come up in a new idea.
Time Bound In this study time bound is included in the characteristics of deductive teaching approach. In performing task students are given enough time to finish the given task. The different approaches that the teacher will use has a corresponding outcomes particularly on the duration of the given task. Through deductive teaching approach students can finish their task because the concepts are already given they will just apply and execute the given concepts. Based on the International Teacher Training Organization through deductive teaching “Most material can be easily taught, it encourages faster learning of material.” Through the deductive teaching approach students can learn and finish task in a given period of time, if the students do task in a given time it can produce a high
