What is Indirect Instruction

Preparing Pre-Service Teachers to Integrate Technology in K-12 Classrooms: Standards and Best Practices
A term generally applied to a teaching and learning model that is more student-centered. An indirect teaching and learning approach typically includes more hands-on type of student learning in the form of problem or project-based learning, experimentation, discovery-based learning or collaborative or cooperative learning. Students often take more of an active role in drawing conclusions about a concept in this form of learning. An example of an indirect instruction sequence would include a 5E Model done in many science classes: Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic and the immediate shift to online learning for higher education and K-12 created an immediate need for conversations surrounding acceptable online pedagogy. This chapter focuses on how higher education instructors, specifically teacher educators, can use a flipped classroom approach to structure course content and prepare pre-service teachers to teach online using both synchronous and asynchronous virtual teaching strategies. Elements of the flipped classroom include creating engaging teaching content; assigning low-stakes, incentive viewing tasks; using formative assessment to clarify and provide feedback; and classroom application to make content meaningful. A vignette of a teacher education course redesign outlines how the model was used both to teach course content and prepare future teachers to implement the strategy in their own classrooms.
