&lt;p&gt;This video was filmed in May 2007 at various elementary sites (Fairfield/Suisun School District, CA)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that use Direct Instruction as an intervention. It highlights classroom practices, and it contains&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;interviews with both parents as well individual students.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We asked parents, &quot;How has Direct Instruction worked to benefit your child?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We ask students, &quot;How has Direct Instruction helped you in schools?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The responses are worth seeing and hearing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&quot;Direct Instruction&quot;&lt;/strong&gt; as described here, refers to the instructional system and curricula pioneered by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.zigsite.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Siegfried&amp;nbsp;Engelmann&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and the late &lt;strong&gt;Wesley Becker&lt;/strong&gt;. (This is different from the generic &quot;direct instruction&quot;, which refers to any explicit instruction).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Features of Engelmann's Direct Instruction&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;* Learners taught in small ability-level groupings so that all students are  starting at the appropriate point in the curriculum. For any ability group, the emphasis is on mastery, and skills are firmed for mastery at each step.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;* Attention is focussed on, and active responding is cued by, the teacher.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;* Scripted presentation of carefully designed instruction to cover concept building, balance of new and review material, and active practice opportunities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;* Emphasis on high paced, active responding as a group and individually,with frequent feedback and correction.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Direct Instruction materials are currently used by thousands of schools across the nation and internationally; however, specific information is not available on the number or demographics of children or centers using the materials.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Direct Instruction was developed in the 1960s and has been revised and renamed over the years. The Direct Instruction model was first branded as the Direct Instruction System for Teaching Arithmetic and Reading (DISTAR), which included DISTAR Reading, DISTAR Arithmetic, and DISTAR Language I . While Direct Instruction products have evolved over the years, the Direct Instruction approach remains the same, and the version of Direct Instruction (DISTAR) used in the studies in this report are still available and relevant to today&rsquo;s consumers. An overview of Direct Instruction programs for preschool and kindergarten children follows. Direct Instruction products are also available for older students.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DISTAR Reading became Reading Mastery. Reading Mastery includes these programs:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
