New trends in teaching and learning theory are considered a theoretical axis
from which came the background that depends on any source, or practice sample or
teaching plane, accuracy and simplicity prevent the development of the teaching
process. Many attempts have come to scene to illuminate the teaching background,
but they have not exceed those remarkable patterns and methods. Thus, the
appearance of the teaching theory have been hindered.
This led to the need for research and development in the field of teaching to
find out a specific teaching theory according to the modern trends and concepts.
Teaching is regarded a humanitarian process which aims at helping those who
want to acquire knowledge, since teaching is an intended activity. Education is the
process of acquiring knowledge, skills and trends by the person who wants to learn
himself / herself. Accordingly, learning is a principal branch of teaching, because it is
considered one of the varied methods in carrying out the teaching process. From this
fact did the need to use a good theory as a guide to the later researches come. Its value
depends highly on the studies and researches it produces to help the researcher find a
way that direct him to discover new aspects.
