INTRODUCTION
A teaching method is the stimulation, guidance, direction and encouragement
for learning. It includes the desire to work with the maximum efficiency one is
capable of. The demonstration method is of utmost importance in the teaching
of nursing. It teaches by exhibition and explanation and provides opportunities
to students to apply their acquired knowledge and skill practically. This method
utilizes the patient’s bedside as a live teaching field for demonstration method
to modify concepts and skills and to maximize possibilities for transfer of
learning so that can use previously acquired knowledge in new contexts.

DEFINITION
Demonstration can be defined as visualized explanation of facts, concepts and
procedures. It trains, explain the students in the art of careful observation.

PURPOSES OF DEMONSTRATION
 To show the learner how to perform certain psychomotor skills. The
learner must reproduce the behaviour of demonstration exactly.
 To show why things occur. The behaviour is intended only as a strategy
to aid the learners understanding of a concept or principle.

SPECIAL PURPOSES IN NURSING


 Teaches new procedures either at bedside in a ward or in the nursing
laboratory on stimulators.
 Applies the knowledge of underlying scientific principles to nursing care
situations.
 Teaches the uses, functioning and care of new equipment.
 Teaches the application of observation techniques and skills to nursing
situations.
 Teach maintenance of health and preventive health care measures to
patients and family.

CHARACTERISTICS OF DEMONSTRATION
 The demonstrator should understand the entire procedure before
attempting to perform.
 All the equipment needed should be assembled before demonstration.
 A positive approach should be used.
