  • EDU 673 Week 1 DQ 1 Key Principles of Effective
    Differentiation
  • EDU 673 Week 1 DQ 2 Educational Neuroscience
  • Key Principles of Effective Differentiation.
    Analyze the five key principles of effective
    differentiation and discuss which of the five
    will be the most difficult for you to embrace
    with a ?fluid or ?growth mindset.? What are the
    obstacles you see that will inhibit implementing
    the principles in your current or future
    educational setting? Which of the five is the
    easiest to accept? Why?
  • Educational Neuroscience. Educational
    neuroscience is an exciting new discipline that
    brings together research from psychology,
    neuroscience and pedagogy to help educators make
    the best curriculum, instructional and assessment
    choices for effective learning. Locate an article
    in the Online Library that investigates findings
    from cognitive and neuroscientific research.
    Provide a brief summary of the article and
    explain how the findings could be translated into
    what educators do in schools and classrooms. Do
    the findings support differentiated teaching and
    learning? Why or why not?

  • EDU 673 Week 2 DQ 1 Fluid and Fixed Mindsets
  • EDU 673 Week 2 DQ 2 Effective Differentiated
    Curriculum
  • Fluid and Fixed Mindsets. Souza and Tomlinson
    (2011) explain, "Mindsets are the assumptions,
    expectations, and beliefs that guide our behavior
    and our interaction with others"(p. 19). A
    teacher's mindset is of utmost importance in the
    differentiated classroom. Think about your least
    favorite teacher and consider what their mindset
    must have been. Share how you felt in the class
    and how the teacher's mindset affected your own
    well-being and academic success as a student. How
    did this teachers mindset affect his or her
    teaching? What advice would you give this teacher
    to help change his or her mindset?
  • Effective Differentiated Curriculum. Visit the
    Discovery Education Lesson Plan Library website
    and locate a lesson plan that represents the
    grade level and subject area you are teaching or
    are interested in teaching. In your discussion,
    post a link to the lesson plan that you have
    selected. Next, answer the following
  • a. Is the lesson constructed so students will be
    consistently aware of what they should know,
    understand, and be able to do? Provide examples
    from the lesson to support your answer. If the
    lesson plan is not constructed in that manner,
    how will you change it to make students
    consistently aware of what they should know,
    understand and be able to do? Provide examples of
    the changes you would make.

  • EDU 673 Week 2 Welcome Activity
  • EDU 673 Week 3 Assessment and Differentiation
  • Welcome Activity. Imagine it is the first day of
    school and you are welcoming a whole new set of
    students to class. Create your own welcoming
    activity for the first day of school that
    demonstrates how you will incorporate
    differentiation through a growth mindset. You are
    not limited to any particular format, but you
    must address the following
  • a. How you will provide a safe and secure
    classroom climate
  • b. How you will provide a positive learning
    environment
  • Assessment and Differentiation. For this
    assignment you will need a lesson plan or unit
    that includes an assessment. You may use one of
    your own, create a new one, or modify one that
    you find. Make sure the assessment contains all
    the elements of effective assessment and then
    explain or provide measures to show
  • a. How it aligns to the essential knowledge,
    understanding, and skills of the targeted
    learning outcomes.
  • b. How students will be absolutely clear of those
    targeted learning outcomes

  • EDU 673 Week 3 DQ 1 Effective Assessment
  • EDU 673 Week 3 DQ 2 Summative Assessment
  • Effective Assessment. Provide an example from
    your own classroom or from your past educational
    experience of effective assessment. What elements
    made it effective? Did it lead to improved
    teaching and learning? Why or why not? What was
    its overall purpose? Next provide an example of
    ineffective assessment. What elements made it
    ineffective? What were the results of the
    assessment? Did it hinder your learning? Lower
    you confidence as a learner? Change your
    motivation?
  • Summative Assessment. There are two types of
    summative assessments, those that assess
    rote-knowledge skills and those that assess
    higher-level executive functions. Using the
    information in your text and from your own
    educational experience, develop an argument that
    supports the use of both types of summative
    assessments. Explain and defend the appropriate
    use of each type of assessment. Finally, express
    your opinion on the use of high stakes testing
    (tests attached to funding) to assess
    rote-knowledge skills on a national scale. Is the
    assessment valid? Is it appropriate? Does it
    increase student learning?

  • EDU 673 Week 4 Differentiated Instruction for
    Student Readiness
  • EDU 673 Week 4 DQ 1 Student Readiness
  • Differentiated Instruction for Student Readiness.
    For this assignment you will need a lesson plan
    or unit that includes measurable learning
    outcomes. You may continue to use the lesson plan
    from Week Three, or you can create a new one or
    modify one that you have found. Provide and
    explain differentiated teaching strategies that
    are appropriate for a variety of students at
    different levels of readiness. Your strategies
    must align to the learning outcomes. Make sure to
    include the following
  • Student Readiness. After reading Chapter Five of
    the course text, create a checklist of the
    nineteen guidelines for differentiating
    curriculum in response to student readiness as a
    separate document. You can group the guidelines
    in whatever way makes the most sense for you. You
    are creating the checklist to keep as a tool for
    use in your current or future classrooms. Once
    you have created the checklist, upload the
    document in the Doc Sharing tool in the online
    classroom (please see the Course Materials
    section of the online course for a brief Doc
    Sharing video tutorial). In the discussion post,
    identify which five guidelines will be the most
    difficult for you to follow and explain why.

  • EDU 673 Week 4 DQ 2 Student Interest
  • EDU 673 Week 5 Differentiating for Learning
    Profile
  • Student Interest. After watching the talks by Sir
    Ken Robinson (TED Talk Ken Robinson Says
    Schools Kill Creativity, and TED Talk Sir Ken
    Robinson Bring on the Learning Revolution!),
    answer the following questions
  • a. Does differentiation make the difference
    between a good teacher and a great teacher? Why
    or why not?
  • b. Describe a time when you were working on
    something or learning about something and it felt
    like time flew by. How will you create that same
    experience for students?
  • Differentiating for Learning Profile. For this
    assignment you will need a lesson plan or unit
    that includes measurable learning outcomes. You
    may continue to use the lesson plan from previous
    weeks, create a new one, or modify one that you
    have found.
  • For this assignment, make sure to address the
    following
  • a. Explain and provide possible differentiated
    teaching strategies (aligned to the learning
    outcomes) that are appropriate for a variety of
    students with different learning profiles.

  • EDU 673 Week 5 DQ 1 Learning Style Debate
  • EDU 673 Week 5 DQ 2 Culture and Gender
  • Learning Style Debate. The four aspects of
    learning profile are controversial. Highly
    respected researchers argue vigorously for the
    existence of cognitive styles or intelligence
    preferences. Other noted psychologists argue that
    the construct of cognitive style or intelligence
    preference makes little sense in terms of
    learning. In this discussion, we will briefly
    debate the validity of both arguments. First,
    find your assigned ?Debate Group? below.
  • Culture and Gender. Share with your classmates
    how you believe your own culture and gender
    influence your teaching and learning. Do you
    believe your gender served as an advantage or a
    disadvantage in your own academic experience? How
    about your culture? Explain how you will account
    for the ways in which gender may affect your
    students learning. How will you adapt your
    teaching so that your classroom will be a good
    fit for students from all backgrounds?

  • EDU 673 Week 6 DQ 1 Orderly-Flexible Learning
    Environments
  • EDU 673 Week 6 DQ 2 Personal and Professional
    Growth
  • Orderly-Flexible Learning Environments. Our text
    describes four kinds of classroom environments
    that stem from teacher management beliefs and
    styles. Orderly-flexible learning environments
    are most likely to support differentiated
    instruction. Choose one of the following three
    kinds of classroom environments
  • a. Dysfunctional learning environments
  • b. Adequate learning environments
  • Personal and Professional Growth. As you reflect
    on this course, what assumptions about
    differentiated instruction have been confirmed?
    Have others been challenged? Which? What steps
    will you take to modify your teaching strategies
    now or in the future? What specific goals will
    you set for becoming a more academically
    responsive teacher? What do you believe is the
    best piece of advice you can give yourself and
    others when it comes to differentiated
    instruction?

  • EDU 673 Week 6 Final Paper Professional
    Development Plan
  • Focus of the Final Project
  • To create your Final Project you will be
    designing your own Professional Development Plan.
    You will need to create a step-by-step timeline
    that shows your commitment to personal and
    professional growth in creating academically and
    culturally diverse classrooms.
