Differentiated Instruction (EDDL 261)

3 Semester Hours of Graduate Credit

Course Overview

Differentiated Instruction for Today's Classroom is a Performance Learning Systems online course that equips experienced and beginning K-12 educators with the essential knowledge and skills to implement differentiated Instruction (DI) successfully in their own classrooms. As a widely respected, research-based instructional approach, DI provides teachers with effective, manageable strategies for meeting the needs of an increasingly diverse student population within the context of today's challenging standards-based curriculum. In a highly interactive learning environment that models the DI principles and processes participants will learn, class members will gain expertise in understanding and implementing a broad range of strategies associated with three essential, distinguishing components of DI:

  • the teacher's role as guide and facilitator in a classroom environment specifically designed to support self-directed student learning and teacher-student collaboration
  • the interdependent nature of assessment and instruction in a DI classroom
  • the implementation of specific instructional strategies to adapt the curriculum content, processes (activities), and products to provide students with entry points to learning that match their readiness, interests, and/or learning profiles.
