Direct

Characteristics

Teacher delivers instruction

Teacher controls content

Content is organized and presented sequentially

Step-by-step directions

Single correct answer or process

Direct

Works best when:

Content is straightforward

Content would be difficult to master in indirect instruction

All students must master content

Advantages

Based on behavioralistic learning principals

Can increase academic learning time

Student achievement is predictable and manageable

Easy to implement

Disadvantages

Extrinsic motivation

Limited creative & divergent thinkingDirect

Teacher-centered so student activity is passive

Presenter must be knowledgeable, perceptive, engaging and motivating

Can be valuable if not overused

May conflict with student learning styles

Content often rapidly forgotten

Lecture

When a high degree of active learning has been explicitly planned, research show that direct instruction is one of the most effective and efficient forms

of teaching.

Lesson Design

What makes a good lesson? Recall some of the lessons you

explored What did you notice? What made them easy to understand? What format was used?

Make a list of criteria you think should be included in a lesson plan

Things to Consider What is the purpose of the lesson? Is

it meaningful and relevant? How are the objectives written? Do the assessments match the

objectives? Are the steps of the lesson easy to

understand and follow? Are the activities engaging and meet

the needs of a variety of learners? How so?
