Specify Learning Objectives
Figure out what exactly
youd like the s tudents to
understand about the topic.

very defined, so it could
make it harder to organize.
It is okay to combined
structures to organize the
lessons.

Any type of test-

Multiple choice, fill in
the blank, short
answer, etc.
More open ended
tests, like essays,
would be better so the
students could show
their understanding of
the concept.
During the lesson, ask
questions to make sure
that students are not
only understanding the
lesson, but paying
attention as well.
In the integration
phase, students should
have the knowledge to
combine different
pieces of information
that has been taught to
them.

Motivation

Lectures can provide

information that
might be difficult for
students to find on
their own
Students will learn
to use a variety of
sources to merge
information taught
Can be very helpful
and enjoyable to
students who hate
to interact with their
classmates and
teacher.
Enjoyable for
students who do not
prefer active
learning. Would
rather be passive
learners
One of the difficult
models to maintain
student motivations.

So What??
An highly effective teaching model that allows a large amount of information to be presented to the students. Some students are
passive learners who receive the information and incorporate it with the other information learned.
