Part 1 of 2
A vital part of teaching and curriculum planning is creating lesson plans that utilize several models of teaching and knowing how to correctly label them so you can use the appropriate methods later on as situations call for it. Within "Direct Instructional Model Lesson Plans", there are 12 major models of lesson planning: Mastery Learning Model, Direct Instruction Model, Positive Self-Concepts Model, Memory Model, Self Training Model, Advance Organizer Model, Role Play Model, Non-Directive Teaching Model, Group Investigation Model, Inductive Model Lesson Plan, Synectics Model, and Jurisprudential Inquiry Model.
Each Lesson Plan begins with an overview of the Model. They are structured as a 'My Share' and show the procedure, practice, discussion and evaluation stages within the lesson plan as well as indicate the target learner type and materials required. The Lesson Plan end with a short summary of the lesson's purpose and objective. Each utilizes the target Model Lesson Plan and serves as an both a valuable lesson plan that can be used in the classroom but also serves as an example of the method for teachers who want to diversify their knowledge of lesson planning.
The first six Lesson Plans will be presented in this issue and the remaining six in the next.
