What is your opinion about the
following set induction?
What is a set induction?
• Set induction is also called anticipatory set.
• Steps taken by a teacher to begin a lesson or
other classroom activity.
• To introduce topic and get students focused
and interested in the days lesson.
• When the learners are set, they are ready to
learn.
• It is about getting ready and induced into the
right frame or mind-set to learn.
• Concerned with the ways of introducing the
teaching and learning process.
Why set induction?
• To arrest or gain the attention of
the learners and prepare them into
a state of readiness.
• To motivate the learners and get
them interested in the lesson.
• To get students focused or think
on what is to be learned.
• To suggest an approach of the
lesson.
Con’t
• To establish a link between what
students had known before and what
is introduced, moving from old to new
materials and linking of the two.
• To establish a framework to assess
the impact and effectiveness of a
lessons
• To give meaning to a new concept or
principle, such as giving examples.
Set induction to be Impactful:
It needs to:
• Be related to the topic, theme, or lesson of the day.
• It can build off from a previous lesson, skill, or strategy if it’s
related or connected to the current lesson.
• The message, question, or strategy needs to reveal itself or
reappear again in the lesson. That way students make the
connection, almost like a light bulb going on.
• It should help the student get ready for the upcoming lesson by
leading directly into the lesson.
• For our sports fans, think of it like a PRE-game show before the
big game.

use it to establish an IT business?
• Show specimens, samples or real
objects
• Present a case study
• Show pictures
• Give demonstration
Strategies- Examples
Putting lesson Context
• Ask questions to assess prior
knowledge/skills
• Review previous lessons and
link them to what is to be learnt
in class
• Give them learning objectives
Advance Organizers
(A cognitive strategy proposed by Ausubel,
allows the learner to recall and transfer
prior knowledge to the new information
being presented)
• A simple statement
• A mind-map
• A handout
• A humble story or anecdote
