The automatic response for ab initio stall recovery instruction has to be stick forward. Reducing AOA is the immediate priority, as the student is doing that rudder can be used to stop any developing yaw, full power is then applied and with the airspeed increasing co-ordinated aileron and rudder used to level the aircraft and then the aircraft is pitched up.
The big thing that has changed is emphasis on minimum loss of altitude has been dropped. This IMO is sensible move as getting the airplane flying again has to be the first priority and trying to hold the nose up and power your way out of a stall is a recipe for disaster. Even simple airplanes will bite if abused this way
I once had a flight where the student (not mine) who was proud of how little altitude he could lose in the 150 after the stall. He made an aggressive pitch up to a power on stall and then when it stalled held the nose up and applied full power. The aircraft did a very nice half snap and flipped inverted at which point he screamed "you have control"
