After the passing of Zig Engelmann, there has been a slight uptick in interest about DI in the last few days. I was asked about where to learn more about DI, so what follows is a list of articles/people/books that have helped me learn about DI*

*Please link things I miss!
First - an FAQ of what DI is and how it differs from other forms of explicit and direct instruction from @greg_ashman gregashman.wordpress.com/2015/09/11/faq…
Second - a deeper discussion of this theme and how to unpick the use of the term direct instruction from Barak Rosenshine centerii.org/search/Resourc…
Third - for an entry level readable text on DI from Shepard Barbash ‘Clear Teaching’: education-consumers.org/pdf/CT_111811.…
Fourth - a deeper authoritative reading list from @Kris_Boulton tothereal.wordpress.com/2018/03/11/whe…
Fifth - the @mrbartonmaths podcast episodes with @Kris_Boulton @naveenfrizvi and @daisychristo (and many others) explicitly cover aspects of DI mrbartonmaths.com/podcast/
Sixth - for some blogs about using DI principles for planning then check out these blogs from Kris tothereal.wordpress.com/2017/08/12/my-…
Seventh - for insights about teaching with Engelmann’s maths Programmes there are a fantastic series of posts from @naveenfrizvi conceptionofthegood.co.uk/?p=569
