2. Demonstration and Return Demonstration
1. Prepares learners to answer a question, and these strategies include the best guess, successive approximations, individual vs. group, public vs. private
2. Considers when to utilize an inductive vs. a deductive approach with question types like including divergent, probing, rhetorical, and higher order questions

3. Stages of Change Model
Advantages: Tailored to individual needs and goals
Disadvantages: Labor intensive, isolates learner
One-to-one
Role Play
1. Learner participates in competitive activity with preset rules to enhance learning participation. Experiential approach that improves skill acquisition, problem-solving, recall, and long-term retention.
2. Artificial experience is created to engage learner in activity that reflects real-life conditions without risk or consequence.
1. Gaming
2. Simulation
1. The different types include positive verbal, positive nonverbal, positive qualified, and delayed
2. Help to illustrate general principles of concepts and make material relevant, aid with remembering, and actively involves learners

Disadvantages: Small groups needed for visualization
Demo
Role Model
affective & cognitive
Self-Instruction
Instructional activities that guide a learner to independently achieve learning objectives.
1. Planned repetition
2. Silence
1. Provides multiple opportunities for learners to practice using new information and uses repetition to help learners build their skills
2. Do not be afraid of this, and use it to allow time for learners to respond to the variety of stimuli used in varying learning situations
What are the 5 design principles of improving your presentation style?
1. Proximity
2. Alignment
3. Repetition

2. Achieve behavior change and connects knowledge with action.
1. Non-verbal cues
2. Summation of closure
1. Examples include facial, body movement, head movement, gesture
