"This presentation examines teaching and learning from an information-processing perspective, using the events of instruction developed by Robert Gagne.

Gagnes Nine Events of Instruction:
- Gaining Attention - Reception. Use abrupt stimulus change.
- Informing Learner of the Objective - Expectancy. Tell learners what they will be able to do after learning.
- Stimulating Recall of Prior Learning - Retrieval to Working Memory. Ask for recall of previously learned knowledge or skills.
- Presenting the Stimulus - Selective Perception. Display the content with distinctive features
- Providing Learning Guidance - Semantic Encoding. Suggest a meaningful organization.
- Eliciting Performance - Responding. Ask learner to perform.
- Providing Feedback - Reinforcement. Give informative feedback.
- Assessing Performance - Retrieval and Reinforcement. Require additional learner performance with feedback.
- Enhancing Retention and Transfer - Retrieval and Generalization. Provide spaced reviews and varied practice.
you master these nine events of instruction in your PowerPoint (Breeze) presentations you have basically mastered the Instructional Design component . Though, you still need some creativity to really gain the learners attention.
