Differentiated Instruction

Slide 12 of 23
Differentiated Instruction is Based on the Following Beliefs
- Students differ in their learning profiles
- Classrooms in which students are active learners, decision makers and problem solvers are more natural and effective than those in which students are served a "one-size-fits-all" curriculum and treated as passive recipients of information.
- Covering information" takes a backseat to making meaning out of important ideas.
