Video Samples of IRI Lessons
Sample IRI math lesson (1.15 min) This math IRI lesson from Zambia demonstrates how IRI sets up interactive lessons between the teacher and the students and how simple tools, such as sticks, are used in the learning process.
This IRI example from a South Africa classroom shows how the teacher is given examples and hands-on strategies that will improve teacher practice. The activity is a chain drill.
The example of English in Action in South Africa shows how the radio teacher provides a model to the classroom teacher to put the students in pairs and ask them to interact in English. Notice that the students interact during a pause in the radio broadcast.
