Topic Progress:

Other commercial programs have evidence of their impact on learning through numerous opportunities to respond. Computer assisted instruction provides frequent responses and immediate feedback on results to enhance motivation and learning.

Class-wide Peer Tutoring provides a systematic approach to reciprocal peer tutoring that promotes high levels of on-task behavior by simultaneously engaging all students.

Direct Instruction is a teaching model that is the foundation of several commercially available reading and math programs that emphasizes carefully controlled instruction and an emphasis on high response rates and pace in a scripted interactive format.
