The Common Sense of Differentiation:

Meeting Specific Learner Needs in the Regular Classroom

DVD Series

This DVD (sold with a Facilitator’s Guide) takes viewers inside elementary, middle, and high school classrooms to see how a differentiated approach helps to identify the learning needs of students and adapt instructional plans to maximize success for each learner. Program 1, Discovering Learner Needs, examines how teachers identify/understand learner needs by: assessing students’ status related to the prerequisites for a particular course unit; pre-assessing students’ knowledge, understanding, and skills that are the focus of an upcoming unit; and using ongoing assessment to understand each student’s progress toward essential goals. Item Code: DCDK Program 2, Techniques for Adjusting Instruction, helps teachers explore techniques for addressing students’ diverse learning needs. Teachers explain and demonstrate how they determine “clusters” of learning needs among their students and use a range of techniques to help students draw on their strengths and overcome learning problems. Program 3, Classroom Routines, explores routines that help teachers address learner needs in ways that are comfortable and predictable for both teachers and students. Scenes from elementary and secondary classrooms demonstrate classroom routines that anticipate and address variance in learner needs and support differentiation.
