Explanation
★The strategies of direct teaching are providing examples and explanation, review and recapitulation, and practice with feedback, so the answer is 1, 4 and 5.
★Direct teaching is teacher led, where the teacher clearly presents content and guides practice step by step.
★Providing examples and explanation is central, since the teacher makes the content plain to the learners.
★Review and recapitulation fix the content in memory by going over the main points again.
★Practice and feedback let students apply what was taught and correct their errors under guidance.
★Promoting inquiry, focusing on concepts and problem raising belong to indirect or constructivist teaching, so they are excluded.
