![Image of design steps with step 4 highlighted](https://designgrp.online/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/step4-1024x436.png)
Before you start teaching, you will identify activities and create all needed materials for class. At the end of the class, you can take brief notes on how it all went.
This step in IDI is where you develop your class outlines (lesson plans), then teach and assess the students’ progress.

4.1 Overview (Why)
Now we have defined what we want to accomplish, how to approach it, and how to measure success, we can develop the instruction. This includes developing the class outlines/lesson plans (for a single or group of classes), teaching it, and reflecting on how it went.
Some student activities will be significant enough to be the main focus of your entire course and others may fit within 1 or 2 class sessions. Identifying them before you start planning your class sessions can help you align activities with the objectives for the lessons.
You have a limited time with your students. To ensure you make the best of it, complete class outlines to help with planning content, activities, and special needs. Use the outlines for guiding each session and noting future actions.
4.1 Suggestions/Instructions (How & What If)
The following suggestions are grouped into the following:
Time Required for Teaching & Learning
- Ohio State University (OSU University Registrar, n.d.), on semesters, recommends instructors plan on 9 hours per week per 3-credit hour course, regardless of course structure.
- The US Department of Education (Ochoa, 2011) recommends students plan on 2 hours of out of class student work time for each hour of instruction time. This is typically referred to as Carnegie guidelines.
General Preparation Before First Class Session
- Draft appropriate non-threatening statements for correcting student errors during discussions (Chickering & Gamson, 1987; Hattie, 2011, pp. 130–142). (B2, C9)
- Consider how you will react to microaggressions and other inappropriate comments, so you are prepared if needed. (B2, B3, C9)
- Arrange guest speakers, such as content experts, student services, project managers, recruitment professional specializing in your field, etc.
- Arrange for all equipment needed – butcher paper & markers, software and hardware, etc.
Create outline
- Review course schedule, assessments, activities, and assignments to determine what needs to be included in this session. (C2, C7)
- Develop an outline of content to identify sequencing (Graesser, 2010, p. 18). (C6)
- Use the class outline form to ensure you have prepared. (B2, C2, C7)
- Use routines, such as class session format, introduction of activities, etc. (Byron, 2020; Executive Function & Self-Regulation, n.d.). (A8)
- Include time for students to manage their anxiety and emotions so they can focus on the material (Byron, 2020). (A8)
- “Balance talk time (your own and students’).” (Graupmann, n.d., p. 1). (A7)
- As you are teaching you will sometimes find a technology is not working as anticipated. Move to Plan B and apologize to students if they are confused or redirected. (C5)
- Identify methods for delivering content other than lectures. (Lee et al., n.d.). (A8)
- If you are going to lecture, identify how you will provide content in a lecture, and maintain both student interest and active learning. (C6, A3)
Prep for next session
- Review previous class outline for ideas on what you need to include.
- Use the readings and homework to develop discussion questions and activities. Send these to students to help them complete homework. (A8, B6, C7, C8, C9)
- Design quiz questions (clicker or backchannel) to use during lectures. (A8)
- “Look for opportunities to discuss and apply metacognition in a variety of lessons” (Wilson & Conyers, 2014). (A4)
- Regularly communicate with every student. This is particularly applicable to asynchronous courses. (B2)
- Use the LMS announcements to notify students of upcoming assignments, assessments, AND outcomes/objectives.
- Make sure students know where to find video links, grades, modules – provide a video teaching students where you are putting information.
Special sessions
- Provide students with a list of strategies for studying and links to websites and books on studying (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, provide these in their book.). (A4)
- “Establish high expectations and show students how to meet those expectations” (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.171). (A4, C4)
- Plan “a 45-60-minute learning strategies presentation after students receive the results of their first test or quiz” (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.171). (A4, A6, C2) Check if student support can help with this.
- Identify a class session after the first exam or quiz to discuss metacognition and study skills (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.172). (A4)
- “Discuss attribution theory with students so they recognize if they are unrealistically attributing their successes and failures to causes outside of their control” (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.171). (A4)
- “Discuss the importance of adequate rest, proper nutrition, and exercise for academic success” (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.173). (A4, B1)
- Teach students about study skills, metacognition, and Bloom’s Taxonomies. Ask students to think about how they have been studying (Graupmann, n.d., p.1; Hattie, 2011, p.130-142; McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.172). (A4, A7, B2)
- Teach “students the skills of gathering and evaluating data” Hofer (2001) (p.375). (A7)
Content Dissemination
- Ask students to explain why one concept is more plausible than others (Ormrod et al., 2019, p.209). (A2)
- Use metaphors, illustrations, and real-world examples (Graesser, 2010, p. 22; Worldwide eLearning, n.d.). (A2, A7, A10, B1)
- Model your thought processes (Saaris, 2017; Wilson & Conyers, 2014). (B2)
- Model problem solving and testing for correct resolution of problems (Hattie, 2011). (B2)
- Provide more than just content. Include why, why not, how, and what if. (B1)
- Ask students to explain new data and information to allow them to do brainstorming or critical thinking (Ormrod et al., 2019, p. 226; Worldwide eLearning, n.d.). (A2, A10) Ask questions that require students to explain their thought processes. (B1)
- Ask students for examples of content application in their life. (A1)
- If looking for specific answers (such as math or other facts), consider making it more fun and less threatening by using candy to reward answers – perhaps even incorrect answers. (B3)
- Stimulate “curiosity by asking questions or presenting problems to solve” (Mi, 2015). (A10)
- Pay attention to how students are reacting to the lecture and other activities. Switch approaches if needed.)
Activities
- Provide a variety of activities and methods. (B2)
- Provide group or paired activity time (Chickering & Gamson, 1987). (B2)
- Provide active learning experiences (Graesser, 2010, p. 19). (B1, C7)
- Provide models or hints to help students get started on problems or assignments” (Information Overload: Executive Function & Cognitive Load, n.d.). (A8)
- Pay attention to how activities are working to intervene if necessary. (C7)
- Identify methods for providing flexibility in activities, discussions, etc. (B2)
- Discuss implicit bias that the activity may introduce and strategies for removing the bias (Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning, 2020). For example, are students with accents overtalked or ignored or, just the opposite, given special attention (ex.: People with British accents are sometimes assumed to be more intelligent)? (B4)
Variety in Activities
- Use a variety of media to provide content—music, role play, games, visual aids, audio presentations, pencil and paper practice, etc. (Davis, 2014; Graesser, 2010, p. 18; McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.172; Mi, 2015, p.1). (A2, A10, B1, B3)
- Use a variety of presentation methods and approaches (e.g. videos, discussion groups, lectures, collaborate learning, think-pair-share, small group solving, student-as-teacher days, and reflection questions) to sustain interest (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p. 172; Worldwide eLearning, n.d.). (A4, A10)
- Provide diverse types of assessments and activities such as projects, assignments, and presentations to support learner variability. This is particularly applicable to asynchronous courses. (CAST, 2018; Chickering & Gamson, 1987; Hargis, 2020; Hattie, 2011, p.130-142). (B1, B2, B3)
- Provide multiple participation methods – synchronous and asynchronous – such as such as whole-class discussions, small group discussions, and paired discussions, both in the classroom and online (Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning, 2020). (B3, C9)
- Use multiple methods for students to ask questions to ease asking questions, such as a backchannel chat, anonymous discussion boards, and muddiest point statements. (B2, B3, C9)
- Use different methods for student interaction such as paired and small group discussions, full-class discussions, and in-class chat sessions during lectures. (B3)
Emotional & Mental Support
- Maintain a positive classroom environment to help students feel comfortable and safe. (A1)
- Create cognitive disequilibrium, such as obstacles to goals, contradictions, conflict, and anomalies, to encourage use of HOTS to solve problems (Graesser, 2010, p. 21). (B1)
- “Provide feedback and support on both a cognitive and emotional level” (Hofer, 2001, p. 375) . (A7)

- Help students understand that not all problems have a single right answer and that, as we learn more, the right answer may change (Hofer, 2001, p.376). (A7)
- Use positive feedback and rewards to motivate students. (A10, C10)
- “Giving students license to identify confusions within the classroom culture: ask students what they find confusing, acknowledge the difficulties” (From Tanner, 2012, as quoted by Chick, 2013). (A4)
- “Stay connected to each student so he or she does not feel invisible” (McGuire & McGuire, 2015, p.172). (A4)
Transformative Concepts
- Name the threshold concepts (Timmermans & Meyer, 2019). (A2, A3)

- “Provide ‘safe’ opportunities to disagree with course material. (For example, students are free to agree or disagree with the text on an exam provided they are able to summarize the author’s viewpoint as well as their own.)” Graupmann (n.d., p.1). (A7)
- Monitor what students are saying and writing for signs of persistent misconceptions (Ormrod et al., 2019, p.209). (A2)
- When students appear conflicted, consider discussing the ‘Shimon Peres solution’ (Aronson & Tavris, 2020). (A2, A3, A8)

- Show learners role models using readings by diverse authors and speakers (Worldwide eLearning, n.d.). (A10, B3)
Scaffolding
- Consider guest presenters, project observers, and/or project tutors (with knowledge and skills beyond that of the learner) (McLeod, 2019). (A9)
- Maximize “social interactions with a skillful tutor that allow the learner to observe and practice their skills (McLeod, 2019). (A9)
- Watch students carefully as they demonstrate their abilities in the topic to ensure that they are working within the ZPD or ZCD. (A9)
Discussions (Whole class and grouped)
- Talk about why participation in discussions is important. (C9)
- Provide a discussion rubric and provide points for points on comments based on their quality, quantity, or a combination. (B2, C9)
- Quiz students on homework or provide outline of the key points before class session. Use the quizzes to identify discussion starters. (C9)
- Pay attention for microaggressions and ‘tokenism’. (B3, C9)
- Discuss the importance of diversity in opinions and respect. (B3, C9)
- Listen carefully to students to ensure they are respecting each other and take action when you think a student might be upset. (B2)
- During discussions, ask students questions about how they arrived at their answers, provide feedback on their approach, and model accurate approaches (Chickering & Gamson, 1987; Hattie, 2011, p.137). (B2, B5)

Synchronous Discussions
- During discussions, pay attention to who is talking. For students dominating the conversation, ask them to hold their thoughts for 2 minutes or ask them to take the opposite view. (C9)
- Asking students who do not have their hand raised may encourage more participation but may also embarrass the student. (C9)
- Specifically ask students for different ideas/approaches/examples. (B3)

- If some students are dominating the conversation, ask them to hold their thoughts for 2 minutes or ask them to take the opposite view. (C9)
- Specifically ask students for different ideas/approaches. (C9)
- Provide an in-class chat (backchannel) and either monitor it yourself or ask students on a rotating basis to monitor. If you use students to monitor a backchannel, you may want to make it anonymous (let them know that you can check who is making comments). (B3, C9)
- Use think-pair-share to start discussions. Ask “Whose partner had a brilliant insight?” (Howard, 2019, p. 10). (C9)
