ABSTRACT
Gagné, Robert is an American behavioural psychologist whose Nine Events of Instruction offer a systematic approach to teaching, with a focus on the outcomes of learning (i.e. observable behaviours).
1 Attract students’ attention. 2 Inform students of objectives. 3 Recall previous relevant learning, to build upon. 4 Present new material. 5 Provide ‘learning guidance’ (e.g. case studies, stories, examples) to facilitate
understanding and assimilation of new material. 6 Allow student to use the new material, to explore it, question it, and integrate it
into their learnings. 7 Provide feedback as guidance. 8 Assess performance to ensure new material is integrated. 9 Provide repetition to maximize retention, and facilitate real-life usage.
