Robert Cagne's 9 Events of Instruction

1. Gain attention (Stimuli activates receptors)
2. Inform learners of objectives (Creates level of expectation for learning)
3. Stimulate recall of prior learning (Retrieval and activation of short-term memory)
4. Present the content (Selective perception of content)
5. Provide "learning guidance" (Semantic encoding for storage long-term memory)
6. Elicit performance (Responds to questions to enhance encoding and verification)
7. Provide feedback (Reinforcement and assessment of correct performance)
8. Assess performance (Retrieval and reinforcement of content as final evaluation)
9. Enhance retention and transfer to the job (Retrieval and generalization of learned skill to new situation)

Thanks Drew for the info. I plan to implement these in my class this week.
