| dc.description.abstract | Direct Instruction is based on over 5 decades of work. The curricular programs are based on extensively formulated and carefully tested theoretical insights and are developed through a painstaking process of research and testing. A great deal of research has shown that they are highly effective in helping all students to increase their levels of achievement. Research also shows that the programs are most effective when they are implemented as designed. This brief report summarizes some of that work. It has three major sections.The first gives a brief overview of the development of Direct Instruction and its theoretical basis. The second section gives examples of results from a variety of efficacy studies that document the impact that DI has on students’ learning, and the third section discusses studies of the implementation of the program and factors that can make it more or less effective. The literature on Direct Instruction is very large. While this summary is believed to be representative of the body of work, interested readers are urged to consult the entire literature. | en_US |
