DIFFERENTIATED LEARNING MADE EASIER

The need to differentiate and develop a differentiated learning environment or classroom is widely preached – and with good reason too, but what does the term differentiation actually mean? More importantly what does a differentiated classroom look like and how is it best achieved? Effective teaching needs to be aligned to the needs of individual students. The teacher/trainer needs to take account of the individual students’ knowledge, abilities and learning styles and then deliver the lesson or course in a way that enables individual students to maximise their learning, development and progression. Differentiating during teaching and training sessions isn’t always easy. The more diverse the student cohort, the more challenging effective differentiation becomes. On a one-to-one basis differentiation is relatively easy but as the group or class size increases this becomes a complex and potentially daunting task. A task that presents real challenges, even for the most skilled teacher or trainer and one that requires far more than adjustment to the odd activity. #ConcrewTraining has a one day workshop that explores the issues and provides high quality high value advice and guidance on ways to differentiate in the classroom and training session. Advice and guidance that reduces burden and improves quality. http://concrew-training.co.uk/home/support-for-education/outstanding-teaching-and-training-made-easier/differentiation-made-easier
