This document outlines Gagné's nine events of instruction: 1. Gain students' attention by presenting a stimulus. 2. Inform students of the objectives, such as discussing human evolution and creating a tool timeline. 3. Stimulate recall of prior learning by asking questions about evolution theories. 4. Present content in an organized way, such as the stages of human evolution. 5. Provide guidance on learning strategies and resources. 6. Elicit student performance through group discussions and activities. 7. Provide feedback to students on their performance. 8. Assess performance based on the stated objectives. 9. Enhance retention and transfer of knowledge through follow

1. GAGNÉ’S NINE
EVENTS OF
INSTRUCTION
Presented By: Ma. Richelle G. Deaño MEd Biology &
Milorenze N. Joting MEd Soc. Stud

7. The following nine steps have been
adapted from Gagné, Briggs, and Wager
(1992):

8. Gain Attention of the Students
Ensure the learners are
ready to learn and
participate in activities by
presenting a stimulus to
gain their attention.

10. Inform Students of the Objectives
Inform students of the
objectives or outcomes to
help them understand what
they are to learn during the
course. Provide objectives
before instruction begins.

11. 1. To discuss the scientific explanation
human evolution.
2. Create a tool timeline of the cultural
evolution of man. (tools, usage, etc.)
3. Document old farming tools used by old
farmers and other artisans.
Objectives

12. Stimulate Recall of Prior Learning
Help students make sense of
new information by relating it to
something they already know or
something they have already
experienced.

13. - Ask questions about theories on
the evolution of man.
- Let students present the theories
they already know.

14. Present the Content
Use strategies to present and
cue lesson content to provide
more effective, efficient
instruction. Organize and
chunk content in a meaningful
way. Provide explanations after
demonstrations.

15. 1. Primate
2. Australopithecus
3. Homo Habilis
4. Homo Erectus
5. Homo Sapiens

19. Provide Learning Guidance
Advise students of
strategies to aid them in
learning content and of
resources available.

20. 1. Books (Campbell Biology:
Concepts & Connections,
Biology: The Unity and
Diversity of Life, A History of
the World.
2. Internet (Slide Share, Youtube)

21. Elicit Performance (Practice)
Activate student
processing to help them
internalize new skills and
knowledge and to confirm
correct understanding of
these concepts.

22. 1.Let students discuss in groups ideas
learnt from different ideas presented by
other groups.
2. Look for the continents in the globe
where evolution of human started.
3. Students trace the movement of people
from one continent to another.

23. Provide Feedback
Provide immediate feedback
of students’ performance to
assess and facilitate learning.

24. 1. Let the student give their reaction
about the performance of different
groups in class.

25. Assess Performance
In order to evaluate the
effectiveness of the instructional
events, you must test to see if the
expected learning outcomes
have been achieved.
Performance should be based on
previously stated objectives.

26. 1. Check up Quiz
2. Create a timeline of the
cultural evolution of man.
(tools, usage, etc.)

28. Enhance Retention and Transfer to the Job
To help learners
develop expertise, they
must internalize new
knowledge.

29. 1. Let students look for recent articles about
human evolution and countries where they
originated and share to the class.
2. Ask the students how important it is to know
the theories in the origin of human and where
they evolve.

30. In a nutshell:
