Explicit Instruction
There are many different approaches to classroom instruction, but they can typically be grouped into two broad philosophies. The first is teacher-centred, direct or explicit instruction, and the second educational philosophy is called progressive. There is strong evidence from educational research that teacher-centred, direct/explicit instruction is more effective and efficient, especially for struggling students.
The terms Direct Instruction and Explicit Instruction are often used somewhat interchangeably. However, it should be noted that the term direct instruction is used in various proprietary or trademarked instructional models that have been developed and promoted by educators, including—most prominently—Direct Instruction, created by Siegfried Engelmann and Wesley Becker.
