There are many myths and misperceptions related to Direct Instruction. We compiled a list of some of the most common ones and tried to find an expert to help us respond to them. Fortunately, we had the perfect spokesperson for the job... Zig Engelmann, creator of DI!

In these five short (2-3 minute) videos, Zig tackles topics ranging from rote learning to higher order thinking skills to teacher creativity. DI users may find them useful to be able to help educate others on some key features of DI programs. NIFDI members may recognize these videos, as they were previously available only to our members in the Members-Only portion of our website.
