@dylanwiliam @ThoughtStretchr That wouldn’t be … balance .. would it. A mixture of pedagogical approaches 🧐

@dylanwiliam @ThoughtStretchr I think many people equate direct instruction with whole class instruction. They are not synonymous.

@dylanwiliam @ThoughtStretchr This is a great clip. But it ends by agreeing that we also have to "teach the concepts the skills & the facts". This describes a content-oriented approach and sadly there aren't enough hours in a day to cover *all* desired facts if we're also using time for skill development.
