Not every child learns the same way. Recent research continues to indicate that every classroom is full of multiple kinds of learners and intelligences that, when appropriately addressed, can have extraordinary results for students. In this module, you'll explore the latest ideas about differentiated instruction as it applies to a typical classroom setting, and how to present core curriculum in ways that engage and excite a wider range of your students.
Guided readings, research findings and online modules that are easy to complete will support you as you try practical activities right in your own classroom. Guided reflections will help you to evaluate your results and assess your progress as you deepen your practice and gain mastery of this important educational concept.
