This document describes several models of teaching:
- Memorization, which aims to increase the ability to store and retrieve information through linking unfamiliar material to familiar concepts.
- Synectics, which focuses on creative thinking through analogy and metaphor.
- Advance Organizer, which helps structure and convey information by clarifying key ideas and linking them to new material.
- Mastery Learning, which divides content into units and uses diagnostic testing and supplementary instruction to help all students achieve mastery.
- Learning from Simulation, which uses simulated environments for students to interact with and learn concepts and skills applicable to the real world.
