The Direct Instruction Podcast DI Voices #2: Sean Duncan
I’m thrilled to share a new project straight from the heart of this year’s National Direct Instruction Conference and Institutes — a new YouTube playlist I’ve put together called DI Voices.
In this mini-episode, principal Sean Duncan reflects on his school’s success with DI reading — and how that’s driving momentum for DI math, with NIFDI’s support.

Armed with just my phone and a little persistence, I tracked down educators between sessions (no small feat at this amazing, high-energy event!) to capture bite-sized, on-the-ground conversations about what Direct Instruction looks like in real schools, with real students, and real support.
These mini-episodes aren’t slick or scripted — they’re raw, real, and packed with insight. You’ll hear from teachers, principals, researchers, and NIFDI team members who are doing the work and generously sharing their experiences.
