Using Gails constructs, Michele clustered the elements "Student control" and "Organization of classroom events", rating them the same on 5 of 7 constructs. Michele appears to consider these two characteristics of expert teaching to be highly similar.

Two additional elements that Michele clustered using Gails constructs were "Personal belief structure" and "Assimilates new/novel ideas and technology", which were rated the same on 3 of 7 constructs.
