    Direct Instruction Model: Theoretical Foundation

    Uploaded by

    Dale Baltazar
    Direct Instruction is an explicit teaching model that involves the teacher explaining concepts, demonstrating skills, and having students practice with feedback. It is based on research showing that effective teaching includes reviewing previous lessons, presenting new material in clear steps, providing guided and independent practice, and feedback. The model draws from social cognitive theory, emphasizing how learning occurs through observation of others. It also incorporates Vygotsky's ideas about the social aspects of learning, including scaffolding support from teachers and students working in their zone of proximal development.

    What is  Also known as explicit instruction.
    Direct
    Instruction?  Model that uses teacher explanation and
    modelling combined with student practice and
    feedback to teach concepts and procedural
    skills.

     It involves the teacher specifying learning


    objectives, explaining and illustrating content,
    and modelling skills for students.
    Disadvantages of Direct
    Instruction
    • Based on the traditional teaching method
    • Students involvement is limited to the teacher
    • Direct instruction works best in conjunction with other teaching
    methods
    • Limit the student ability to do critical thinking
    Advantages of Direct Instruction

    • The teacher has control of the timing of the lesson


    • Students are physically easy to monitor.
    • The teacher has control over what will be learned and who will learn.
    • Any information for which there is one right answer can be taught
    efficiently and honestly by using direct instruction
    • Many objectives can be mastered in such a short time amount of time
    Theoretical Foundation

    • The Direct instructional Model is built on research and theory from three
    Areas:
    1. Teacher effectiveness research
    2. Social Cognitive theory, based on the work of Albert Bandura
    (1989, 1997) and this colleagues, which emphasizes the role of
    modeling on learning skills.
    3. The influence of interaction in learning, based on the work of
    Lev Vygotcky (1978)
    1.) Teacher effectiveness research

    • Direct instruction has six characteristics that are effective across


    grade level and content areas:
    - Reviewing the previous day’s work
    - Presenting new material in clear and logical steps
    - Providing guided practice
    - Giving feedback with correctives
    - Providing independent practice
    - Reviewing to consolidate learning ( Rosenshine & Stevens, 1986)
    2.) Social Cognitive Theory:
    Learning by Observing Others

    Describes changes in the At the heart of this theory


    behavior, thinking, or is the concept of
    emotions that result from modeling, which is the
    observing the behavior of tendency of people to
    another person ( Bandura, imitate behaviors they
    1989, 1997) observe in others.
    3.) Vygotsky: The social
    side of Skill Learning
    • Two main work of Vygotsky(1978) :
    I. The first is scaffolding, which is the instructional support
    teachers provide as students learn skills
    II. The second is the Zone of proximal development, which is the
    state of learning in which a student cannot solve a problem or
    perform a skill alone but can be successful with the help of a
    teacher.
