SO reflecting on some very serious content in the class can be insightful and difficult...
ISD allows for teachers to develop and design lessons and in conjunction also allows them to reflrect on what the outcomes are, if it worked and so on. The teacher then can either make the ncessary adjustments or keep it the same for the next year and is also able to collect data to prove the effectiveness of the lesson.
There is also set levels that should be followed in oerder to maximize the full potential of the design.

4 models: with the four models they can be classified into two groups...... direct and indirect instruction. Direct meaning teacher driven and indirect meaning teacher guided but more inquiry based learning, where the student drives the learning.

I think that the direct instructional or Behavioral Model is more widely used, moreso than the others because learning can be more controlled with large classrooms, more content can becovered, and the teacher has most of the control. In a special education setting it is the easier form of instruction, as the teacher models, the students do with the teacher and then the student tries on there own and the teacher guides. The other models allow for a more inquiry or search based instruction where the student is given a directive and has to guide themselves, come up with an outcome and practice the outcome. Kind of in the realm of scienctific inquiry.
