Teachers aim to help their students succeed, improve and reach the highest level of comprehensive learning. To do so, they must take each student from his/her current level, and teach him/her in the way he/she learns, which may vary depending on each student, and act on his individual needs, learning styles, and means of expressing the learned lessons (also known as multiple intelligences). Attention must be paid to these points when designing the learning environments that ensure students attain the required skills and knowledge, and enhance their interests in education and high thinking as well as critical thinking skills. Teachers need training experience that would help them understand the students and recognize their needs. Teachers need training on strategies that would help them understand and respond to students' individual needs. That is what this program covers . It presents the required knowledge on students learning styles and multiple intelligences to provide for a better learning experience.
Big Ideas
• |
Learners are different from each other in the way they learn. |
• |
Differentiated instruction is learner- centered. |
• |
Differentiated classroom environment differs from traditional learning environment. |
• |
The differentiation should be in every element of the curriculum (outcomes, content, activities, and assessment – grading and scoring). |
• |
The relationship between learning styles and multiple intelligences is a complementary relationship. |
