Short-range instructional design ‘ usually accomplished by a teacher in the development of a course outline’ (Gagne, 1974:153).

Extemporaneous design – particular province of teacher activity.  ‘Occurs when the teacher decides upon each new communication as a result of what has immediately gone before within the give and take of a classroom, seminar, or tutoring session’ (Gagne, 1974:153).

Questions to consider in regards to Gagne’s 9 learning events: (one question per event)

1. How will you get and keep the learner’s attentions?
2. How will you inform your learners of the lesson/activity objective(s).
3. How will you remind learners of the applicable knowledge that they learned in the past or their previous experiences
4. How will you teach the information or what type of learning activity or environment will your create to foster learning
5. how will you provide guidance  to the learners (scaffolding/support)
6. what type of homework, practice or learning activities will you provide to help them learn
7. What will you do to let learners know how they are doing? how will you correct, affirm or encourage them?
8. How you know that the learners have ‘learned’ the material or can do the desired tasks.
9. What will you do the enhance the retention & transfer of the new skills, knowledge, and or attitudes
