GE 6013 - Differentiated Instruction


This course will provide educators with the essential knowledge and skills to implement differentiated instruction (DI) successfully in their own classrooms. DI, a widely respected, research-based instructional approach, provides teachers with effective, manageable strategies for meeting the needs of an increasingly diverse student population within the context of today’s challenging standards based curriculum. Teachers will gain expertise in understanding and implementing a broad range of strategies associated with three essential, distinguishing components of differentiated instruction. First, the teacher’s role as guide and facilitator in a classroom environment specifically designed to support self-directed student learning and student teacher collaboration. Second, the interdependent nature of flexible grouping and assessment in a DI classroom. Third, the adaptation of curriculum content, processes and products to provide students with entry points to learning that match their readiness, interests and/or learning profiles.
