Exactly. To set up curriculum so you tell students barely any basic information is so strange.

Whilst direct instruction involves telling pupils things directly, this is only the building block knowledge. It sets pupils up to think *harder* & solve unknown problems BECAUSE they know more than via discovery. Knowledge ENABLES thinking. What other myths need busting? 4/4



There's a non-trivial number of people here who support DI and are also actively hostile towards anything to do with diversity. This is part of the image problem with DI. I personally wouldn't take any advice from someone angry that people want diverse characters in literature.

In educational contexts, it crucial to ensure that students have a solid foundation of content knowledge before engaging in more inquiry-based learning. This helps to manage cognitive load and allows students to build on what they already know effectively.

I believe I've seen the 80/20 split in some paper but it depends on subject and students. Inquiry needs to wait until content knowledge is solid to decrease cognitive load.
