As a complement to the forthcoming catalog, the National Institute for Direct Instruction has also created a DI Materials Cost Worksheet that will aid administrators and other decision makers in determining program material costs. Constructed as a Microsoft Excel document, users can simply enter the quantities for each title and component into the worksheet, and the total estimated cost is automatically calculated at the bottom of the sheet. This document is updated regularly to reflect current pricing from the publisher, but users need to verify actual pricing from the publisher or through their sales representative. Note that the material cost spreadsheet includes price information for Direct Instruction Spoken English (DISE), published by Sopris Learning. NIFDI does not sell these programs directly and recommends this worksheet as a tool for estimating only.
