Differentiated Instruction: Theories and Practice

Catalog description

Students come to the classroom with diverse experiences, understandings, interests, strengths, and needs. The teacher's ability to understand why, when and how to differentiate instruction as a part of everyday planning and instructional delivery routines can increase equity, access, rigor, and engagement for all students. In this course, graduate students will develop the agile thinking required to analyze problems of student learning and strategically adjust instruction to increase the likelihood of successful student performance for all learners in the classroom.
