1. Different instruction is required

for different learning outcomes.
 Categories Of
Example Conditions of Learning
Learning

● Draw attention to distinctive

features by variations in print or
speech.
-Stating previously learned ● Present information so that it can
materials such as facts, be made into chunks.
a. Verbal Information concepts, principles and ● Provide a meaningful context for
effective encoding of information.
procedures. ● Provide cues for effective recall
and generalization of information.
 Categories Of
Example Conditions of Learning
Learning

● Call attention to distinctive

features.
●Stay within the limits of working
memory.
Discriminations ● Stimulate the recall of previously
Concrete Concepts learned component skills.
b. Intellectual Skills Defined Concepts ● Present verbal cues to the ordering
Rules or combination of component skills.
● Schedule occasions for practice
Order Rules and spaced review.
●Use a variety of context to promote
transfer.
 Categories Of
Example
Learning
- Employing personal ways
to guide learning, thinking,
c. Cognitive Strategies acting and feeling, e.g.,
constructing concept maps
of topics being studied.
Conditions of Learning
● Describe and demonstrate the
strategy.
● Provide a variety of occasions for
practice using the strategy.
● Provide informative feedback as to
the creativity or originality of the
strategy or outcome.
Categories Of
Example
Learning
- Choosing personal actions
based on internal states of
understanding and feeling,
d. Attitude e.g. deciding to avoid soft
drinks and drinking at least 8
glasses of water everyday.
Conditions of Learning
● Establish an expectancy of success
associated with the desired attitude.
● Assure student identification with
an admired human model.
● Arrange for communication or
demonstration of choice of personal
action.
● Give feedback for success
performance; or allow observation of
feedback in the human model.
Categories Of
Example
Learning
- Executing performances
involving the use of
e. Motor Skills muscles, e.g., doing the steps
of the singkil dance.
Conditions of Learning
● Present verbal or other guidance to
cue the executive subroutine.
● Arrange repeated practice.
● Furnish immediate feedback as to
the accuracy of performance.
● Encourage the use of mental
practice.

2. Learning hierarchies define

what intellectual skills are to be
learned and a sequence of
instruction.
a. Stimulus recognition
b. Response generation
c. Procedure following
d. Use of terminology
e. Discriminations
f. Concept formation
g. Rule Application
h. Problem Solving
 GAGNE'S PRINCIPLES

3. Events of learning operate on

the learner in ways that constitute
the conditions of learning.
The theory includes nine instructional events and
corresponding cognitive processes:

(1) Gaining attention (reception)

(2) Informing learners of the objective
(expectancy)
(3) Stimulating recall of prior learning
(retrieval)
(4) Presenting the stimulus (selective
perception)
(5) Providing learning guidance
(semantic encoding)
(6) Eliciting performance (responding)
(7) Providing feedback (reinforcement)
(8) Assessing performance (retrieval)
(9) Enhancing retention and transfer
(generalization)
