| APPLICATION Gillani and Relan (1997, 232) contend that "the interactive nature of
frames in interdisciplinary instructional design has the potential of implementing
cognitive theories as its theoretical foundation."
Based on David
Ausubel's idea of advance organizers "as a cognitive strategy that links prior
knowledge structure with new information" (1968 as cited in Gillani and Relan 1997,
232), as well as, Vygotsky's idea of instructional tools and the four learning stages as
defined by his 'zone of proximal development', Gillani and Relan proposed an instructional
design model having four phases:
- advance organizer phase
- modeling phase
- exploring phase
- generating phase
