The Teaching of Concepts: A Review of Instructional Design Research Literature.

Tennyson, Robert D.; Park, Ok-Choon

Studies of concept of teaching are reviewed and a four-step process is proposed: (1) determine taxonomical structure of the context; (2) prepare a definition in terms of critical attributes; (3) arrange examples in rational sets; and (4) arrange sets according to divergency and difficulty level.
