When discussing definitions of explicit instruction, you can either try to offer one (e.g. teacher-led system that selects pre-determined learning goals and incorporates temporary scaffolds, modeling, feedback and practice) or you can show them this.

Brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
Direct instruction receives negative publicity mostly because there are many misconceptions floating around.
