It looks and reads just like a million other "educational instructional models" that have been foisted on K-12 teachers all over the planet.
Before someone wrote a book on how to climb Mt. Everest, someone else had to climb it, survive, then teach someone else how to do it successfully.
As a K-12 teacher I've actually been pleasantly surprised at some of the less complex models that have been presented to us as a way of unifying our curriculum from top to bottom (setting goals at the top and leaving it to the individual instructor, especially if they are an expert in the field, to shape the content along the way). When it becomes stage-by-stage micromanagement though, we "lose the forest for the trees."

More process over content, navel gazing, and sheer quintessential rubbish from folks who are probably educated beyond their intelligence.

That much I gathered in the meantime. :-)
It's just interesting to see how people from different whereabouts associate a word or a name with different things first.
(and it's not just Elmer Fudd talking about an especially inspiring reed)
Or maybe I'm just weird, who knows...

I recall the old saying...
those who can .....do
those who can't... teach
those who can't teach ...teach teachers
those who can't teach teachers....do educational research
maybe something in it!
