THE 8 ELEMENTS OF THE ITIP
LESSON PLAN DESIGN

• Having established what lesson plans are and why
  they are important, lets take a look at the 8
  elements of ITIP lesson plan design. They are as
  follows

8 ELEMENTS OF ITIP LESSON PLAN
DESIGN

• Anticipatory Set
• Objectives
• Instructional input/strategies
• Modeling
• Checking for Understanding
• Guided Practice
• Independent Practice
• Closure/Evaluation

4
ANTICIPATORY SET

• An Anticipatory set has three important functions
  in a lesson plan. It
• Focuses participants attention
• Provides brief practice on precious or related
  training
• Develops participant readiness and motivation for
  training

5
ANTICIPATORY SET

• An anticipatory set helps participants get
  motivated and shift gears from previous
  activities. The anticipatory set must relate to
  the concept to be learned. For Example, in a
  Training for Trainers seminar, participants may
  be asked to take a few minutes to think about
  training aids (such as chalkboards, overhead
  projections, or handouts) that were used in a
  previous seminar they attended. Participants
  write whether the aids were useful, and discuss
  the importance of using training aids for
  successful learning.

6
OBJECTIVES

• Objectives serve two purposes.
• They tell participants both
• 1.) what they will be able to do at the end of
  the module and
• 2.) why the module/training is important.
  Objectives should start with action verbs
  (describe, demonstrate, explain.) and should be
  measurable.

7
Sample objectives in a Training for Trainers
module on training aides might be

• 1.) Identify the advantages and disadvantages of
  different training aids
• 2.) describe the proper use of different training
  aids
• 3.) discuss the rationale for use of training aids

8
INSTRUCTIONAL INPUT/STRATEGIES

• Instructional input/strategies convey the
  information that participants need to have in
  order to meet the objective(s).
• What information or skills are needed by the
  learner to accomplish the objectives?
• What instructional strategies best convey the
  required information and skills?

9
MODELING

• Modeling enables participants to learn about a
  topic and to see examples of the desired product,
  process, or behavior. Through modeling,
  participants can identify the critical elements
  of each product, process, or behavior.

10
CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING

• Checking for understanding provides the trainer
  with regular opportunities to assess
  comprehension of materials presented throughout
  the module. If participants cant demonstrate
  knowledge, its a cue for the trainer to revisit
  the topic.

11
GUIDED PRACTICE

• Guided behavior is built into the lesson plan in
  order to guide participants initial attempts to
  demonstrate new skills and behaviors. Its purpose
  is to provide a safe environment to practice,
  thus increasing the probability of success and
  accuracy.

12
INDEPENDENT PRACTICE

• Independent practice. Once instructed in the
  material and guided through an example of the
  practice by the instructor, the participant is
  given the opportunity to demonstrate their
  understanding of the material on their own.

13
CLOSURE / EVALUATION

• Closure/Evaluation is the part of the lesson plan
  that summarizes the training session and
  evaluates learning. It assesses to what degree
  the training accomplishes the objectives for each
  learner. It facilitates retention and seeks
  transfer of the new learning to others situation.

14
A NOTE ABOUT THE 8 ELEMENTS

• You dont necessarily need to complete all these
  steps in one day or even during one training unit
  of time. The trainer should consciously decide
  whether to include or exclude each part of lesson
  design on any given unit of the seminar.
