The document outlines Robert Gagne's 9 instructional events for effective learning. The events are: 1) gain attention, 2) inform learners of objectives, 3) stimulate recall of prior learning, 4) present stimulus, 5) provide learner guidance, 6) elicit student performance, 7) provide feedback, 8) assess performance, and 9) enhance retention and transfer. An example is provided on teaching students to recognize an equilateral triangle using these 9 events.
