JOURNAL ARTICLE REVIEW: DIFFERENTIATION STRATEGY ASSIGNMENT

JOURNAL ARTICLE REVIEW: DIFFERENTIATION STRATEGY ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONSOVERVIEWDifferentiation is a widely used framework, incorporating a variety of strategies for student success. Differentiated Instruction was developed by Carol Ann Tomlinson many years ago.  Her goal was to provide a framework to help teachers meet the needs of the growing numbers of diverse students found in a classroom.  The goal of differentiated instruction is to use flexible groupings during the academic day to provide specific instruction to each groups’ needs.  Using initial assessment to determine readiness and teaching in the student’s zone of proximal development, the teacher can group students according to their need, using effective teaching strategies. The three elements of instruction to meet the needs of the students are content, process, and product. Content is what is taught; process is what will be used to teach; product is how students show they have learned the concept.INSTRUCTIONSFor this Journal Article Review: Differentiation Strategy Assignment, you will choose one of the strategies used to differentiate instruction for a specific group of students. This is not about differentiated instruction on a whole, but a specific strategy used in a differentiated classroom. Article reviews enable you to think critically and to synthesize information.In this course, you will conduct two separate Journal Article Review: Differentiation Strategy Assignments on differentiated instruction strategies – a different strategy for each.
