ELED3020 - Differented Instruc Inclus Clm
Summer 2013

Today's teachers are often challenged by the wide variety of student's ability levels and backgrounds in inclusive elementary classrooms.

Teachers who differentiate instruction engage in curriculum and instruction which considers each student's learning strengths and needs in order to maximize the learning capacity of all the studnets. This course will teach practical strategies for aspiring classroom teachers to differentiate lessons in order to meet the needs of all students which includes students with exceptional needs to students who are English Language Learners (ELL students). Some of the differentiated instruction strategies that will be taught will include; flexible grouping, RAFTS, WebQuests, anchor activities, tiered instruction, and learning contracts. The current special education legislation, utilizing the Individualized Education Plan (IEP), technology for differentiating, and techniques to make modification in specific content area classes will be taught as well.
