The ASSURE

Model
 A
Analyze the Learners
 Analyze Learners
Matching the characteristics of the learner with the content of
the methods, media, and materials

General Characteristics
- identify your learners
Specific Entry Competencies
- know what your learners are capable of doing
Learning Styles
- how an individual perceives, interacts with and
responds emotionally to the learning
environment
 Learning Styles
Gardner says, “not all people
have the same abilities; not all
people learn in the same way.”
Information Processing Habits

• Concrete Sequential-direct hands-on

experiences in logical order
– Workbooks
– Programmed instruction
– Demonstrations
– Structured laboratory approaches
Information Processing Habits

• Concrete Random-lean toward a trial

and error approach
– Games
– Simulations
– Independent study projects
– Discovery Learning
Information Processing Habits

• Abstract Sequential-learners decode

verbal and symbolic messages adeptly
– Reading presentations
– Listening to presentations
Information Processing Habits

• Abstract Random-draw meaning from

human mediated presentations
respond to tone and style of speakers
– Group discussions
– Lectures with question answer periods
– Videotapes
– Television
 S
State the Objectives
 State Objectives
A statement of what will be achieved, not how it will be achieved

Audience
- learning takes place when learners are active, mentally
processing an idea, or physically practicing a skill.
Behavior
-the verb describing the new capabilities that the audience
will have after instruction
Conditions
-the performance that is to be observed by the learners
Degree
-the standard by which acceptable performance will be
judged
 S
Select Method, Media, and
Materials
Select Method, Media, and Materials
Choosing a Method
-any given lesson will probably incorporate two or more
methods to serve different purposes at a different
points in the progression of the lesson
Choosing a Media
-the physical form in which a message is incorporated and
displayed
- still images, text, voice, music, etc.
Selecting Materials
-available
-modify existing
-design new
 U
Utilize Media and Materials
 Utilize Media and Materials
Use of media and materials by the students and
teachers.
Preview the materials
-always preview instruction materials before using them
-materials should be appropriate for your audience and
objectives
Prepare the materials
-gather all of the equipment you and the students will need
-determine the sequence
Prepare the environment
-arrange the facilities for proper student use of the
materials and media
 Utilize Media and Materials
Use of media and materials by the students and
teachers.
Prepare the learners
-give a broad overview of the content and lesson or
-tell how the lesson relates to the topic being studied or
-give a motivating statement that creates a need to know
by telling learners how they will profit from the lesson
-give cues directing attention to specific aspects of the
lesson
Provide the learning Experience
-direct attention to the classroom
 R
Require Learner Participation
 Require Learner Participation
Active participation in the learning process enhances learning.
Behaviorist Perspective
-learning is a process of trying various behaviors and keeping
those that lead to favorable results.
Cognitivists Perspective
-learners build up a mental schemata when their minds are
actively engaged in struggling to remember or apply a new
concept or principle
Constructivists Perspective
-learning is an active process where knowledge is built on the
basis of experience
Social Psychologists Perspective
-interpersonal communication as the social basis for knowledge
acquisition
 Feedback
Productive critical evaluative response

– Oneself
– Print Sources
– Devices
– Other People
 E
Evaluate and Revise
 Evaluate and Revise
Designed to detect and correct learning/teaching problems and
difficulties with the instruction that may interfere with student
achievement

Assessment of Learner Achievement

-Did students learn what they were suppose to
learn?
Evaluation of Methods and Media
-Were the instructional methods and materials
effective?
Revision
-What changes need to be made in the lesson?
