Short description: Teachers in one-room schoolhouses differentiated daily; they had to. Yet differentiation remains a most challenging aspect of teaching today. Tackle that challenge head-on by exploring research-based, practical strategies for both pre-assessment and differentiation. Leave with tools to differentiate process, content, and product through readiness, interest, and learner profile. (Although the format mimics 2021’s Schoolhouse 2.0, the strategies are all new!)
Learning Outcomes: Participants will:
Be able to describe best practices in differentiation and pre-assessment
Be able to design pre-assessments for readiness or ability level
Be able to design strategies to differentiate for content, process, and product
