Instruction

To influence directly

  

Background

When the U. S. Air Force trained me as a technical instructor in 1957, the Instruction
model was Tell'em: "Tell'em what you're going to tell'em, tell'em, and tell'em what you
told'em.  Our student motivation model was creating a "burning yearning for learning."

  

The Instructional Model

Learning Goal (Opening > An ad for what's coming): "In this session we will cover
the three addresses carried in every datagram sent from and to your workstation."

  

Known to Unknown (Middle > Explanation of knowledge to be learned):  "Just as
each of us has several identifiers: DNA, name, home address, so, too, your terminal
has three identifiers to the network:  a hardware addess, unique to every device, a
net address for the net you are on, and an app address for your network connection.

  

Assess (Closing > To ascertain learning has occurred):  "How many addresses does your net device use in a session and what are they?  (clarify and discuss).
