Nine Events of Instruction
- gaining attention (reception)
- informing learners of the objective (expectancy)
- stimulating recall of prior learning (retrieval)
- presenting the stimulus (selective perception)
- providing learning guidance (semantic encoding)
- eliciting performance (responding)
- providing feedback (reinforcement)
- assessing performance (retrieval)
- enhancing retention and transfer (generalization).
The steps outlined above are deemed important for enhancing the effectiveness of instruction.
