Graduate: Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of strategies for differentiating teaching to meet the specific learning needs of students across the full range of abilities.
During my study at University, I have come to appreciate the need to differentiate for students based on their readiness, interest and learner profiles. Differentiation is the recognition that students are individuals and lessons and learning activities need to be planned to cater for their differences. Below is an example of an assignment I completed that studied Differentiation and strategies to implement this philosophy in the classroom, demonstrating my understanding of this standard.
Example 1:
During University, I studied a topic called EDUC4720 Differentiating for Diverse Learners which I received a Distinction in.
One of the assessment tasks was to:
1. Define Differentiation and Inclusion
2. Study a School Diversity and Inclusion Profile - based on our placement
3. Reflection on our Experience Implementing Differentiation
Link to Differentiation Assignment Response
This assignment caused me to research differentiation and inclusion and contemplate teaching strategies reflecting this ideology. I gained a deep understanding of these concepts due to this assignment and look forward to implementing them in the future.
