How to Use Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction
[Examples]
Creating a learning experience and not sure where to start? Robert Gagne has you
covered.
Based on his research from the 1960’s, Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction are intended to
provide teachers, trainers, instructors, and instructional designers with a set of guidelines to
create efficient and effective learning experiences.
Each step in Gagne’s process provides a communication strategy that is intended to further
deepen the human learning process. As each step is completed, learners are meant to
become interested, engaged, and invested in the learning topic.
Before you begin designing eLearning courses or instructor-led training materials, make
sure you read through and apply all of Gagne’s guidelines.
We suggest printing out the guidelines and using them as a checklist as you design
your learning experience. The checklist certainly helps you stay on track, making sure
your developed learning output is engaging, memorable, and effective.
