Editor's Notes
- Questions: What’s your differentiation strategy? What are the different types of learners in your classroom?
- A fishing boat pulls in a net full of herring on the Central Coast of B.C.
- Communication competency
- Critical thinking competency
- What is differentiated instruction? Readiness level – students arrive with different prior knowledge, skills, experiences, understandings etc… - differentiating for readiness levels contributes to academic growth Interests – students arrive with different interests - differentiating for interest levels contributes to motivation Learning Profile – how students process info, interact with info, how we take it in, how we think about info - differentiating for learning profile contributes to efficiency of learning (want to provide different ways for students to learn)
- With these five factors, one can see the overlap with the ideas behind DI, which ultimately helps students construct meaning to learn concepts and information.
