(3) It leads to permanent learning. (4) It accounts for the principles of reflective thinking. (5) It helps to create interest for topics among students. (6) It helps in arousing the spirit of discovery among students. (7) It imparts maximum learning to students. CONCLUSION It is the most suitable method for teaching secondary classes. If a teacher feels that the demonstration is taking much time than he would have to take the help of students. Similarly, a small group of students can be invited to the demonstration table. Students can also demonstrate the experiment. This might help in removing objection regarding the unavailability of learning by doing approach. Demerit of discussion method 1. All types of topics cannot be taught by Discussion Method. 2. This method cannot be used for teaching small children. 3. The students may not follow the rules of discussion. 4.
