Essentials of Instructional Design: Merrill's First Principles of Instruction
The document discusses Merrill's First Principles of Instruction, emphasizing how effective learning involves engagement with real-world problems and the activation of prior knowledge. It outlines various instructional strategies such as problem-centered learning, demonstration, application, and integration, which promote meaningful learning experiences. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of feedback and guidance in the learning process, showcasing how these principles can be applied in teaching practices.
