    The demonstration method is a teaching strategy where the teacher performs an activity or concept for students to observe. It is often used when students struggle to connect theories to practice or understand theory applications. There are six key steps to the demonstration method: 1) Planning and preparation, 2) Introducing the lesson, 3) Presenting subject matter, 4) Performing the demonstration, 5) Using teaching aids, and 6) Evaluation. The method allows students to gain a deeper understanding, remain actively engaged, and develop reflective thinking skills, but it may lack opportunities for hands-on experience and be time-consuming or costly to implement.
