Sequencing is the organizing of events together in an orderly manner to help a learner understand their course and even in solving their problems (Turner, 2016). Sequences that are involved in teaching mainly focus on teaching the skill, expansion of knowledge and understanding and giving learners the confidence of creating their own goals. It mainly shows the specific role of learning and not necessarily the role or function of the person who delivers the learning. In learner-related sequencing, the cues of each and every learner are read. It will be of great importance in preparing and planning for a conducive environment and a friendly atmosphere and also offer suggestions on how the learning environment could be improved to meet the learners need to his or her satisfaction. Proper sequencing would also be of importance to the professor as it ensures that they have adequate preparation on how they will teach and deliver the information and how they will communicate to those adults who are connected to the learners life directly (Callahan, 2016). Through this also, every learner is prepared and taught on how they would maximize on the opportunities that may arise in their natural education environment and how they would properly utilize them to their benefit .lastly, it’s an important condition that every curriculum must have in developing interest as well as support any form of exploration.

Instructional strategies are mainly aimed at the methods or techniques that a teacher chooses to use so that the specific learning objectives can be achieved (Bieniek and Barger, 2018). These strategies create the desire in learners to learn and work in assisting the teachers makes learning be enjoyable. One of the important strategies is having a limited time for literature. Most of the learners concentration span varies between fifteen to twenty minutes, therefore the lecturer should consider pausing after about fifteen minutes. For instance, the teacher could ask the students to stand up and stretch themselves, have a talk with their friends or allow them join to group discussions. This is an effective way that would ensure the learners get all that is being taught. Secondly, the teacher should ensure that the vocabulary they use during their lesson is relevant and within the capability of the learner to comprehend. The vocabulary should also be within the text being delivered. A teacher for example, can choose to teach vocabulary through a graphic organizer or even use his experience to assist the student understand what they are delivering. Finally, the teacher should ensure that his entire lesson is learner-centered. This would mainly be achieved when a teacher allows the learners educate themselves rather than him having to deliver the content to them. This way better understanding would be enhanced among students.

There are those instructional strategies that are crucial in planning to analyze a learner. Proper and continued observational checkouts are vital in planning the best learning strategies for early childhood. Graphic organizer is very important at an early age as it gives room for the children to visually organize new information and relate it to old information (Callahan,2016). For example, children can have colorful charts that are drawn and pined on their wall. This would work as a reminder for the children as the charts would be attractive to them and at the same time they will be able to relate them with things in their surroundings. Also imitation of data is very important for this group. Imitation will give the children a room to play and also make them have an influence on the objects surrounding them. In addition, this would also be important in enhancing the kids sensory organs such as the visual and tactile senses. The other very vital instructional strategy is an activating plan. This calls for the student to recall any information that was given to them. This helps learners to easily learn any fact that is given to them. For example a kid can watch their favorite programs or cartoons and would be required to recall facts or narrate what they watched.

Any instructional message majorly would entail important learning features of learners that include the learning styles of the learner, the age of the learner, what kind of relation exists between the learner and the teacher and how does the student relate with the surrounding in which they are taught in (Turner,2016). The most crucial feature however, is the style which the student uses to understand the information being delivered to them. For instance, there are those students who understand the information being given to them by just listening to the teacher, others best acquire the knowledge through visual while there is another group that would need to combine all these senses in order to understand a concept. It is therefore very important for a teacher to have this knowledge so as to develop the right approach on how they would deliver the information. Another feature that is essential is the is the use of multiple bits to enhance understanding. These bits include the use of tonal variation, body posture or even the visual. It is important if the teacher uses the all these bits correctly so that students will understand better. The age of the learner is also of paramount importance in creating the appropriate content to be delivered to the learner.

Instructional objectives are aimed at viewing and analyzing the cognitive, the behavioral and the affective aspects of the learner. The most important way to ensure that this is achieved is by having evaluation criteria that would test the understanding of the learners. This will make most of the students focus on the activities that will give them good results during their examination. This will put the students in a position where they would be able to recall the facts or concept that they had been taught. Their understanding and retention of the new material or information taught would be enhanced. It will also help the student incorporate and comprehend easily the content to be delivered. Aside from that, another important way of ensuring that these objectives are achieved is by the teacher giving out notices that enable the students easily recognize their structure. Once the student has understood their purpose, they will show a high level in understanding of a concept and it would be easy for them to follow and obey any guidelines or instructions that are given to them. With this, delivery will be boosted as the student’s capability to comprehend and understand information or even utilize the experiences and ideas would be enhanced. Therefore, for this to be successful there should be a plan for book acquaintance to the learners. This will improve the learners reading and writing ability. Timely writing would also be an important delivery approach as the writing skills of the learner would be improved and thus communication between people enhanced.

Instructional context is all the external dynamics that surround a learner which shows the importance of the messages to be acquired (Callahan, 2016). It mainly focuses on where the content is originating from, how it would be delivered and through who would the content come from so that it can be passed on to learners. One of the delivery strategies is the use of technologies to deliver the content for example using of computers. Computers in a classroom set up would work in adding up to information that was delivered by the instructor. They provide a support to what had been taught in the classroom away from the teacher. For instance, a demonstration that is carried out via a computer video will enhance better understanding and memory from the learner and they will have a deeper understanding of the content. It will also enable the learners pass the information they acquired much easily to their peers. Another delivery plan is though the virtual learning network. This is vital as learners will more understanding based on learning objectives. With the use of this technology the student would be able to learn and make sense of their studying environment.

Instructional strategies are very important and they are majorly developed so that they can cater for all the needs of the students including those learners with disabilities who experience a challenge in creating, learning or even remembering the information that they have been taught. This strategy uses the knowledge acquired previously by the learners and their experiences to create new information. Instructional approaches are the delivery styles that are used by a teacher to access whether the students acquired the right knowledge. This delivery strategy focuses mainly on the learner’s style to acquire information. This method aims at giving learners freedom and a free will to participate in the learning process. The other delivery strategy is the encouraging of peer to peer tutoring. This method will target all the learners with their different abilities. Its very vital when the teacher is introducing a new concept to the learners. There are several activities that are carried out during the peer to peer tutor is error correcting and awarding of points to students as they ask random questions among themselves. This is very important as all learners are given an opportunity to participate in the learning process freely and in a manner that is enjoyable to them. Lastly, it leads to learners having a positive interaction among them.
