Examples With Lesson Plans

Abstract

The purpose of this final chapter is to provide examples of the application of the conceptual framework. This chapter contains lesson plans for four disciplines: history, science, literature, and archaeology. The four disciplines were chosen to represent science (action potentials and archaeology) and liberal arts (history and literature), all four of which are likely to be found in the curriculum of all universities. Each discipline has an overview element and plans for each of the topics within the units. Instructional technology is used in all the units of each of the disciplines. The methods used to impart the material can be any that the teacher chooses; however, most would work well with a constructivist approach. The nine instructional events developed by Dr. Robert Gagné can be used for all the units.
