Applied Differentiation: Making It Work in the Classroom features Gayle Gregory, Cindy Strickland, Lin Kuzmich, and exemplary teachers and administrators provides hours of group training for teachers and administrators on a school or district level as well as job-embedded professional learning. Teachers can see how successful teachers design lesson plans and deliver them in their differentiated classrooms---and specific templates and frameworks are included that will help teachers identify learning styles and differentiate lessons using the Applied Differentiation Map. Program 1: Knowing the Learner o Understand the What and Why of Differentiation o Differentiation creates motivation in all learners, especially those who have not been excited about school. o Educators intentionally use data to recognize student needs and interests that provide links to successful learning. o Identify Student Readiness o Connect to students with where they are. The constant pull to greater knowledge or skills will engage students not otherwise ready for the learning. o Crystallize Student Interest o As teachers tie what students like into topics, interest will increase and learning will result. o Create a Learning Profile for Each Student o Use the Learning Profile Matrix to help understand how students learn best through their learning styles, intelligence inclinations, culture, race, and gender. Program 2: How to Differentiate o Educators understand themselves as learners o Begin small by starting with familiar topics. o Apply learning styles, techniques, and strategies teachers know. o Manage differentiation o Sustain a positive safe climate. o Establish and practice routines. o Provide anchor activities to engage students without direction. o Plan with the Applied Differentiation Map, a dynamic tool for lesson planning o The map will help teachers understand: WHERE to begin. WHAT is differentiated and WHAT are student needs. HOW students will learn and HOW learning is to be demonstrated. Program 3: Leadership and Implementation o This program is designed to help educational leaders start the process of differentiation within their schools. o Create a climate for differentiation o Teachers, like students, have differing needs and styles. o Provide Training and Leadership o The principal must take responsibility to initiate improved instruction. Allow teachers to observe other teachers, to coach or be coached, and to participate in learning communities. o Offer ongoing support o Help teachers feel empowered, accountable and professional. o Examine structures that work o Training and sustaining structures need not be rigid, but must be sensible and consistent.
