Last week we shared light on different areas
of learning styles. Being fascinated
with the reason behind why we learn the way we do and what that means in terms
of education, we began researching more in-depth, Differential Instruction.
As
instructors it is our obligation and passion to guide children into a pleasant
educational experience that will help them grow based on their pace and
learning style. Differentiation means
tailoring instruction to meet individual needs.
This could be anything from content, process, products or even the
learning environment.
Kumon reaches out to students and creates
the most effective learning experience possible- this is known as
differentiating instruction. There are
four elements that can be differentiated in order to help students learn and
retain information.
1. Content: What does the student
need to learn and how will they view and retain the information?
2. Process: How does the student understand the information? Through Activities?
3. Products: What are the projects that will help the student express what they have learned? EX. Letters, presentations, puppet shows.
4. Learning Environment: How does the classroom look and feel to a student?
All of these elements contribute to how a child learns. What elements do you need to differentiate?
