Differentiated Instruction

Course Description: Welcome to PSEA PEARL's "Differentiated Instruction for Today’s Educator"

Effectiveness as a teacher is now more than ever predicated on the teacher’s ability to meet the needs of a wide range of students. Effective teachers must know the standards and their students, and it is the standards and the needs of the students that should determine instructional decisions. Programs, materials, and resources should not guide curriculum and instruction. This course is specifically tailored to provide teachers research-based and teacher friendly approaches, materials, and resources to differentiate their instruction to meet the needs of the particular group of students and the standards being taught.
