Darren over at Right on the Left Coast posts about his experience using “Discovery Math” techniques. I would be thrilled to have Darren as my daughters math intructor. Direct Instruction, BRING IT ON.
I would really like to see how my daughter would thrive in that environment. As a sophomore, she is taking Trig and Pre-Calculus this year and while the instruction is better than I anticipated, in all her years she has never had anything approaching a pure direct instruction environment.
