Investigation Opened
By Harry James
Las Vegas, NV– It started out as
just another normal day. Larry
the Learner had just sat at his
desk to embark on a learning
journey. A journey that turned
horrific within only a few
moments.
The result is unnecessary
incident that could and should
have been avoided by having
the right instructional strategy
coupled with the right content.
And the Press was having field day….
Page 11
It wasn’t a good day for me either…I had to find out how this happened.
Page 12
And it’s not a good day for you...
You’ve got to help me solve this case.

Stakes are high……

It looks like Larry was playing some type of Jeopardy-Game when the incident occurred.
So…for what type of content is a Jeopardy-
type game the most appropriate strategy?
Page 22
Hmm, I think we need to learn more about
instructional strategies, I know just
who to ask.
We need to visit one of the toughest L&D folks I know. The Learning
Lady.
Page 23
Let’s get going to her favorite hangout.
Page 24
On her lunch hour she hangs at a place called “The Dinner”
Page 25
Yeah, she was a former school teacher. As wicked with the red pen as they come.
Oh, no I don’t.
It’s not “The Dinner.” It’s “The Diner.”
Page 26
So tell me about instructional strategys.
…strategys No! …strategies Yes!
Page 27
First, let me tell you about the most basic type of content known
to humankind.
Page 28
“Declarative.” It’s Factual information that can only be learned
through memorization.

Got, it. So what strategies would be good for teaching
facts?

She started to rattle off the information.

Storytelling
Learners remember facts better in stories than in
bulleted lists.

Ah, good but how do I know if the clue is pointing toward
“Declarative Content”?

Look for the following verbs in the learning objectives.

I can’t give you any more information. I have to go. To learn more, you must talk to…
Our conversation was over. She had to go.
“The King Pin.”
Page 41
It was a short trip to The King Pin’s Office.
Page 42
He appeared to be expecting me….
I was expecting you.
I got a text you were coming.
Page 43
Hello King Pin. Call me Bob.
Hi, ya Bob.
Page 44
I need to know about instructional strategies.
I only know about Conceptual Content.
Start talk’n Bob.
Actually, I think I’d like you to call me King Pin.
Page 45
Conceptual Content is the grouping of ideas or
objects having common attributes.
Page 46
Let me ask you a question detectives...
Page 47
There are two types of concepts—Concrete
Concepts and Abstract Concepts.
Page 48
I’m listening.
Concrete concepts are things you can touch, like a table
or a chair.
Abstract concepts are things you can’t touch like
customer service or compliance.
Page 49
How does one teach concepts?
Page 50
Examples and non-examples of the concept.
Take the concept of a chair…what are the
attributes of a chair?
Page 52
What else you got?
Page 53
Metaphors
The ADDIE Model is a road map.
Creating engaging instruction is like writing a mystery novel.
Being in compliance is as easy as following a recipe.
A metaphor transfers the sense or associations of one word or idea to
another.

Now we need to find Ivan…the Informant...
Page 62
I knew one of his old hangouts...
Page 63
He was about as friendly as a ghost on Halloween with no one to haunt.
Hello, again clueless…
Page 64
Look I am going to ask you a question about Procedural Content.
He was about as friendly as a ghost on Halloween with no one to haunt.
Page 65
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
Procedural Content is step-by-step instructions for performing a task.
Page 66
He grabbed his typewriter and made some notes to explain about Procedural Content.
Page 67
Strategy One: Part-to-Whole
De-construct the procedure, teach the
individual parts and then have the
learners put it back together again.
Page 69
Strategy Three:
Why?
Teach the “Why”
behind a process
or a procedure to
provide the
context for
troubleshooting
and for
understanding the
steps.
Page 70
Procedures are a bunch of “strung-together” concepts.
If the learner is having problems with the procedure, it might be they don’t
understand the underlying concepts.
Page 71
Riddle me this…which verbs do you think are
indicators of Procedural Content?
Page 72
How is your chart looking detectives? We must be getting
close.

I arrived at the place on the matchbook, as shady as a pine grove at Midnight…
Page 77
Suddenly “Boss Lady” pulled up in her fancy car.
Page 78
She threw me a folder…
Page 80
Then she zoomed off into the cityscape…
Page 81
Let’s see what’s inside.
Page 82
We need more information from Boss Lady…let’s go.
Page 83
This was it, she was going to tell me about the final content level and instructional strategies.
Have a seat.
Page 84
There is no chair.
Page 85
Ok, look…here are three ways to teach problem solving….
Page 86
Experts are different from novice learners because an expert can apply knowledge
learned from multiple experiences and adapt it to a new experience.
Page 87
So give learners: - Multiple, Realistic Scenarios (case studies)
- Problem-based Learning Experiences - Third-Person“Thinkers”
Page 88
Ok so for what type of knowledge is a
matching game most appropriate?
She turned on her computer to show me an example…
Page 90
Also experts solve problems by asking themselves different questions than novices.
Provide a list of prompts or questions to help trigger thoughts and question sets.
There is a list of questions in the folder I gave you. Did you even look? Ugh.
Page 92
Create a learning documentary of how to do a job, how decisions are
made, how dots are connected.
Then she turned on the oldest TV I’d ever seen…to some Reality TV show…What was this? Appointment Television?
Show learners how experts think through problems and solve them.
It’s a “think aloud.”
Page 93
Great stuff, how about the verbs for problem solving.
Again…in the folder…again ugh.
Page 94
Let’s see if we know some of the verbs before we check the folder.

Wait. This case is not going to end so easily.

I guess we should have checked for a

Find out what instructional strategy woke Larry. Rumor has it…it is not one that you
uncovered today.

I’ll conduct an investigation
alright.

But now…I’m out of time. We’ll solve that case in a future presentation.
