Abstract: This article is a look at the application of Marzano’s Dimensions of Learning in a post-secondary vocational college in rural Saudi Arabia by instructors, who have had no training in the implementation of the Dimensions of Learning, by way of objectively observing and then critically analyzing the lessons, followed by giving evidenced-based recommendations to ensure a more learning and thinking oriented lesson delivery. The lessons observed were vastly different as one lesson was a beginning level English as a Foreign Language lesson which introduced a topic, while the other was a vocational-technical lesson serving as a final review. Briefly noting previous studies and recommendations of research done in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the article will conclude that the Dimensions of Learning model is worth investigating further in vocational education in Saudi Arabia.
