Lesson Plan Comparisons 

We suggest that teachers not only try CRISPA, but also think about the ways in which the arts can enhance the planning process.  Below you will find three models of lesson plans: behaviorist, constructivist, and perceptual.  They have similarities and differences.  The "Perceptual Model" shows what happens when we use photos and inspirational quotes in our lesson planning.  For more information about the differences between these models and their effects on teachers' and students' learning experiences, click here.  

​
The Behaviorist Model refers to a way of teaching that focuses on how to impact a students' behavior to meet a given objective.  Take a look at this example of a Behaviorist lesson plan.

​
The Constructivist Model refers to a way of teaching that relies on the student to construct their own meaning through the guidance of a teacher.  Take a look at this example of a Constructivist lesson plan. ​

 The Perceptual Model focuses on the use of Connections, Risk-Taking, Imagination, Sensory Experience, Perceptivity, and Active Engagement to create an aesthetic experience for both the teacher and the learner.  Take a look at this example of a Perceptual lesson plan. ​
