Ep 012: Inside Pritesh's Live Lesson - Explicit Instruction in Action

Hear Pritesh delivering a live lesson at a conference using explicit instruction (aka direct instruction), where he demonstrates delivering clear explanations, high frequency questioning & warmth. Some cool statistics about the lesson: in 12.5 minutes he asks the audience to actively participate 38 times! On average, that's an opportunity to participate every 20 seconds! That's a lot of questions... there is no room for passivity in Mr Raichura's classroom!

Neena unpicks the lesson in discussion with Pritesh. They identify and analyse four key elements: planning with granular clarity; four principles for effective explanations; when and why to use different questioning strategies; ways of flooding the classroom with warmth.
