Success with Differentiated Instruction

by Cindy Strickland

Differentiated instruction is responsive instruction — that is, instruction that responds to students' needs. In this seven-lesson course, we'll examine the characteristics of high-quality differentiation. By the end of the course, you will be able to articulate a rationale for differentiation; identify ways to introduce differentiation to students, parents, and your extended learning community; explain the roles of quality curriculum, respectful activities, and flexible grouping in quality differentiation; identify ways to assess for readiness, interest, and learning profile; describe and apply a range of instructional strategies that support differentiation for readiness, interest, and learning profile; reflect on your own classroom practices that fit in with the philosophy of differentiation; and devise a plan for continued professional growth in differentiation. Our goal for this course is to facilitate learning for each student of differentiation's journey as we collectively strive to rise to the challenge of providing the best learning opportunities for all of our children.
