Differentiated Instruction enables teachers to plan strategically in order to reach the needs of the diverse learners in classrooms today. In this volume, the authors share techniques for finding the strengths and uniqueness of each child, as well as identifying learning style theories and multiple intelligences along with tools to help teachers better know their students′ styles and preferences. Suggestions and examples of effective pre-assessment tools are outlined, as well as ideas for grading and tools to use during and after the learning process.

A practical process is outlined that allows teachers to adjust learning based on students′ knowledge, skills, past experiences, preferences and needs. Adjusting, compacting, and grouping are explored, and techniques to form groups and design interactions are examined. The authors discuss the most recent and best practices and pedagogy that make a difference in student achievement, and explore and outline brain-based strategies.
