There is more and more evidence that putting computers and tablets on students' desks (1:1 devices) was a terrible mistake. I agree with @AdamMGrant that "it's time to remove laptops [and tablets] from classrooms."
DI’s genius was uniting delivery and design into an instructional system. The ultimate system, in my view, includes provisions for both the how and the what to teach—the whole puppy.
That’s why capital-D, capital-I Direct Instruction remains just as relevant today. /End
Today in "research confirming that grandma was right":
Children who spend more time on phones scored lower on reading, vocabulary and memory tests.
And the longer they scrolled, the worse the outcomes
“@NCTQ’s analysis revealed that 40% of teacher prep programs are still teaching two or more practices that are incompatible with scientifically based reading instruction.
There is a spectrum of programs, from those that are fully aligned to scientifically based reading to those that are fully wedded to debunked reading methods. And there is variation—and confusion—in between. For example, we identified over 200 programs that teach at least three of the five core components of scientifically based reading instruction right alongside at least one contrary practice”
