This document appears to be notes from a presentation or workshop about learning styles and differentiation. It includes discussions of grouping students based on their preferred learning expressions, an activity where students create representations of differentiation using their least preferred style, and notes about various learning preferences and strategies.

17. Learning Differences:
Preferences for Expression
You are about to be given an assignment
On a piece of paper rank from highest (1)
to lowest (5) your preferred expression
style
Draw
Act
Build
Sing
Write
18. The Assignment: Groups
In a minute you will find your group – they are others
who:
Least want to draw
Least want to act
Least want to build
Least want to sing
Least want to write
19. Assignment
Using your least favorite
expression style, you will work
with others in your group to create
a representation to
explain differentiation
that you will then share with the
group.
20. The Assignment: Groups
How do you feel about the assignment
you’re about to do?
Are you excited about the assignment?
Imagine being a child for whom
reading and writing is a constant
struggle…
21. The Assignment: Groups
This simulation, however, is a bit like
using remedial instruction. If we never
let students do what they like and are
good at, we never see their potential. We
also do not fulfill their need for
power, fun, freedom.
22. The Actual Assignment
The actual assignment is to work with those in
your MOST preferred learning style in order
to create the representation about
differentiation.

Albert Einstein (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955) was a theoretical physicist, philosopher and author who is widely regarded as one of the most influential and best known scientists and intellectuals of all time. He is often regarded as the father of modern physics.[3] He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect."[4]His many contributions to physics include the special and general theories of relativity, the founding of relativistic cosmology, the first post-Newtonian expansion, the explanation the perihelion precession of Mercury, the prediction of the deflection of light by gravity (gravitational lensing), the first fluctuation dissipation theorem which explained the Brownian motion of molecules, the photon theory and the wave-particle duality, the quantum theory of atomic motion in solids, the zero-point energy concept, the semiclassical version of the Schrödinger equation, and the quantum theory of a monatomic gas which predicted Bose–Einstein condensation. Einstein published more than 300 scientific and over 150 non-scientific works; he additionally wrote and commentated prolifically on various philosophical and political subjects.[5] His great intelligence and originality has made the word "Einstein" synonymous with genius.[6]
