Differentiated Instruction with UDL | National Center on Accessible Instructional Mater... - 3 views

  • The instructional concepts should be broad-based, not focused on minute details or unlimited facts. Teachers must focus on the concepts, principles and skills that students should learn. The content of instruction should address the same concepts with all students, but the degree of complexity should be adjusted to suit diverse learners.

      I often find that teachers struggle to identify different concent for learners because they are overly focused on the facts of the assessment rather than the concepts in the standard. If we can always articulate to learners what they are going to learn in broad terms we may be better able to see that the concept can be covered at varying levels of complexity. I found with middle school students the easiest content differentiation was providing different reading materials to different students about the same theme.

  • Everyone likes the feeling of accomplishment and recognition; rewards for good work produce those good feelings.
    • Hilary Phukan
       
      I have found that in many cases it is the praise or acknowledgement of good behavior or good work- the reward is physical evidence of that- the kids do not care about the value of the reward. In fact often the crummier the reward the more they enjoy it.
  • If you can make something fun, exciting, happy, loving, or perhaps even a bit frightening, students will learn more readily and the learning will last much longer

      This makes me think of some of the field work our students have experienced- makes learning more relevant.

  • One of the major keys to motivation is the active involvement of students in their own learning.

  • Attending to need satisfaction is a primary method of keeping students interested and happy.
    • Hilary Phukan
       
      Yes, if the student does not have needs met and feel they are safe/secure then learning does not happen.
