Quick-Start Steps Results

Write a keyword description of what you want to see, hear, etc. immediately that learners do to show they learned from this lesson. Lessons consist of vocabulary (words and manipulations sometimes called skills) and logic (relationships among vocabulary). State the vocabulary and logic in a way you can measure (it’s done, not done correctly, or some other way you have to assess the learners’ academic performances promptly) it when it occurs.

Research named a learners’ view (ALV) offers five generic results. Choose one of them for a simple lesson that solves a simple problem. Choose more than one for a complex problem (sometimes called “higher order thinking skills”) that your lesson shows learners how to solve.

1. What is it? (Identify, name or show what it does; its use)

2. What is like it? (Analogies, similarities)

3. What is it not? (Antonyms, contrasts)

4. What comes next? (Generalizing, recognizing and extending a series such as 1, 2, 3, _. )

5. What is missing? (Recognize and then identify or demonstrate a missing part of something.)
