Introduction
Welcome to Try DI!: Planning & Preparing a
Differentiated Instruction Program, an interactive computer-based
instruction course. This course is designed to provide you
an opportunity to learn about an instructional framework, Differentiated
Instruction (DI), aimed at creating supportive learning environments for
diverse learning populations. Students will be presented
a method for self-assessment of the extent to which their current instructional
approach reflects the perspective, principles, and practices of the DI
approach. The course reflects an approach that aligns the principles of DI with
the practices of DI. The concept of a “theory of action” will also be provided
within a DI context. The course has also been designed to introduce students to
a range of strategies associated with a DI approach. Strategies included in
this course have been selected on the basis that they are effective in the
widest possible range of educational K–12 settings. This course follows Why DI?: An
Introduction to Differentiated Instruction, which addressed the What, Why, and Who of a
classroom that reflects a DI approach. The focus of Try DI!: Planning & Preparing a
Differentiated Instruction Program is on the When, Where, and How of the DI approach.
Try DI!: Planning & Preparing a
Differentiated Instruction Program is an invitation to
reflect, explore, and anchor professional practices in the current literature
and growing research base in support of DI. This course is designed for anyone
working with a diverse learning population across the K–12 spectrum and will
have the most direct application to professionals serving students within a
mixed-ability classroom setting.

Academic Integrity Statement
The structure and format of most
distance-learning courses presume a high level of personal and academic
integrity in completion and submission of coursework. Individuals enrolled in a
distance-learning course are expected to adhere to the following standards of
academic conduct.
Academic Work
Academic work submitted by the
individual (such as papers, assignments, reports, tests) shall be the student’s
own work or appropriately attributed, in part or in whole, to its correct
source. Submission of commercially prepared (or group prepared) materials as if
they are one’s own work is unacceptable.
Aiding Honesty in Others
The individual will encourage honesty
in others by refraining from providing materials or information to another
person with knowledge that these materials or information will be used
improperly.
Violations of these
academic standards will result in the assignment of a failing grade and
subsequent loss of credit for the course.
Level of Application
This course is designed as the second
course in a series of courses on meeting the needs of a diverse learning
population served across the K–12 continuum.
Expected Learning Outcomes
As a result of this course,
participants will demonstrate their ability to:
1.
Understand how
differentiated instruction is defined and the distinctive elements of a
classroom where DI is practiced.
2.
Outline elements of the
rationale supporting implementation of a DI approach (i.e., why DI?).
3.
Identify the essential
principles from which a DI approach is developed and implemented.
4.
Demonstrate understanding
of a teacher reflection strategy aligned with principles of DI.
5.
Understand the need for
alignment between instructional paradigm, educational
priorities, principles of differentiation, and practices selected on a daily basis.
6.
Demonstrate understanding
of a self-assessment tool used to reflect on current practice in comparison
with elements of the DI approach.
7.
Understand the importance
of having a “theory of action” as a teacher and the potential for elements
entailed in the DI approach to enhance current practice.
8.
Identify several methods
for gathering information about student-specific readiness.
9.
Understand the
relationship between instructional decision making and student motivation.
10. Identify DI strategies for designing
environments that reflect Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles.

for differentiation to meet student-specific needs.
13. Articulate the advantages of
differentiating with regard to student interest.
14. Explain the relationship between
planning effective instruction and student motivation.
15. Demonstrate understanding of methods
for flexible grouping commonly used in a DI classroom.

when differentiating based on student-specific variables in the areas of
interest and learning profiles.
17. Explain the general parameters
necessary for creating a positive learning environment.
18. Outline a variety of teaching decisions
that could be made in response to observations of students struggling to
maintain progress.

and barriers most often encountered when implementing a differentiated
classroom.
24. Identify possible steps of a course of
action for teachers transitioning from a non-DI (i.e., “one size fits all”)
approach to a DI (i.e., “whatever it takes”) approach.
25. Understand the functionality of an
observation tool that reflects both the theories and practices with a DI
approach.
Course Description
This course, Try DI!: Planning & Preparing a
Differentiated Instruction Program, has been divided into four chapters. As
the second course in a multi-course series on Differentiated Instruction, the
emphasis is on providing examples of strategies and methods associated with a
DI approach. The course has been organized to ensure that each strategy, or
idea on “how to” implement DI, is an extension of the DI approach as a whole
and not just presented as a disjointed list of ideas to try. The first course
in the series, Why DI?:An
Introduction to Differentiated Instruction, focused on the What, Why, and Who of a
classroom that reflects a Differentiated Instruction approach. Try DI!: Planning
& Preparing a Differentiated Instruction Program, will indirectly
address the conditions, or When, Where, and How of the DI approach. Because DI is not a recipe for teaching or
a prescriptive model, the structure of the course reflects a range of entry
points for educators to consider as they reflect on the considerations teachers
make when differentiating.
Chapter 1: How DI Provides Teachers a Theory of
Action
Chapter 2: How DI Equips Teachers to Become
Students of Their Students
Chapter 3: How DI Provides a Framework for
Creating a Community of Learners
Chapter 4: How DI Promotes Equity &
Excellence
In Chapter
1: How DI Provides Teachers a Theory of Action, we will begin by reviewing
the rationale for Differentiated Instruction presented in the first course in
this series, Why DI?:An
Introduction to Differentiated Instruction. Using the terminology from the
first course, a framework for reflecting on how best to create a differentiated
classroom will be provided. Principles that best describe a non-prescriptive DI
approach across the K–12 spectrum will be outlined. Using these principles, a
tool for reflection will be presented for educators to employ as they consider
elements of effective instruction from within a DI perspective. The concept of
a “theory of action” will be presented and the connections to this concept will
be explored in relation to the DI approach. At the conclusion of Chapter 1,
course participants will complete a reflection activity.
In Chapter
2: How DI Equips Teachers to Become Students of their Students, we will
articulate the connection between instructional planning and student readiness.
Several methods for identifying student-specific interests will be provided.
The relevance of these student-specific variables will be expounded on as a
means for creating conditions for teacher-student collaboration. The connection
between instructional decision-making and student motivation will be
emphasized. DI teaching strategies will be outlined in support of the principles
of DI explored in Chapter 1.
In Chapter
3: How DI Provides a Framework for Creating
a Community of Learners, we will explore the advantages of differentiating
with student interests and learning profiles in mind. The curricular,
instructional, and environmental variables teachers consider in a DI classroom
will be explored. The importance of creating a positive classroom work environment
will be discussed. Several methods for grouping students flexibly in a DI
classroom will be provided. With an emphasis on the teacher’s awareness of each
student’s readiness to benefit from instructional planning, a variety of
methods for matching tasks, activities, and learning environment to students
will be reviewed. We will also identify the advantages of the DI approach when
designing learning environments that reflect the Universal Design for Learning
(UDL) backward design approach.
In Chapter
4: How DI Promotes Equity and Excellence, we will explore the significance
of creating opportunities for students to represent and reflect on their own
progress, achievement, and understanding within a DI classroom. In order to do this, the topics of “traditional grading,”
“competition,” “fairness,” and “equity” will be explored from a DI perspective.
The difference between “assessment for learning” and “assessment of learning”
and the importance of assessment being motivating to students will also be
considered. An outline of the range of barriers most often encountered when
implementing a differentiated classroom will be provided. Course participants
will also reflect on the best course of action for teachers in the initial
stages transitioning from a “one size fits all” approach to a “whatever it
takes” approach. A multi-purpose reflection tool will be provided
that ties together many of the key objectives from the course. A reflection exercise will also provide a sense of
professional development direction.
General
Each chapter contains additional
“handouts” that cover specific topics from the chapter in greater depth. They
are provided for you to read, ponder, and apply to the setting in which you
work. Some of the handouts are directly related to the concepts and content of
the specific chapter, while others are indirectly related to provide
extended learning connections.
Student Expectations
As
a student you will be expected to:
·
Complete all four information sections showing a
competent understanding of the material presented in each section.
·
Complete all four section examinations, showing a
competent understanding of the material presented. You must obtain an overall
score of 70% or higher, with no
individual exam score below 50%, and
successfully complete ALL writing assignments to pass this course. *Please note: Minimum
exam score requirements may vary by college or university; therefore, you
should refer to your course addendum to determine what your minimum exam score
requirements are.
·
Complete a review of any
section on which your examination score was below 50%.
·
Retake any examination,
after completing an information review, to increase that examination score to a
minimum of 50%, making sure to also be achieving an overall exam score of a
minimum 70% (maximum of three attempts). *Please note: Minimum
exam score requirements may vary by college or university; therefore, you
should refer to your course addendum to determine what your minimum exam score
requirements are.
·
Complete all course
journal article and essay writing assignments with the minimum word count shown
for each writing assignment.
·
Complete a course
evaluation form at the end of the course.
Examinations
At the end of each course section, you
will be expected to complete an examination designed to assess your knowledge.
You may take these exams a total of three times. Your last score will save, not the highest score. After your third attempt, each
examination will lock and not allow further access. The average from your exam
scores will be printed on your certificate. However, this is not your final
grade since your required writing assignments have not been reviewed. Exceptionally
written or poorly written required writing assignments, or violation of the
academic integrity policy in the course syllabus, will affect your grade. As
this is a self-paced computerized instruction program, you may review course
information as often as necessary. You will not be able to exit any
examinations until you have answered all questions. If you try to exit the exam before you complete all questions, your
information will be lost. You are expected to complete the entire exam in one
sitting.
Writing Assignments
All assignments are reviewed and may impact your final
grade. Exceptionally or poorly written
assignments, or violation of the Academic Integrity Policy (see course syllabus
for policy), will affect your grade. Fifty percent of your grade is determined
by your writing assignments, and your overall exam score determines the other
fifty percent. Refer to the Essay Grading
Guidelines, which were sent as an attachment with your
original course link. You should also
refer to the Course Syllabus Addendum, which was sent as an attachment with
your original course link, to determine if you have any writing assignments in
addition to the Critical Thinking Questions (CTQ) and Journal Article
Summations (JAS). If you do, the Essay Grading Guidelines will also apply.
Your writing assignments must meet the
minimum word count and are not to include the question or your final citations
as part of your word count. In other words, the question and citations are not
to be used as a means to meet the minimum word count.
Critical Thinking
Questions
There are four CTQs that
you are required to complete. You will need to write a minimum of 500 words
(maximum 1,000) per essay. You should explain how the information that you
gained from the course will be applied and clearly convey a strong
understanding of the course content as it relates to each CTQ. To view the
questions, click on REQUIRED ESSAY and choose the CTQ that you are ready to
complete; this will bring up a screen where you may enter your essay. Prior to
course submission, you may go back at any point to edit your essay, but you
must be certain to click SAVE once you are done with your edits.
You must click SAVE
before you write another essay or move on to another part of the course.
Journal Article Summations
You are required to
write, in your own words, a summary on a total of three peer-reviewed or
scholarly journal articles (one article per JAS), written by an author with a
Ph.D., Ed.D. or similar, on the topic outlined within each JAS section in the
“Required Essays” portion of the course (blogs, abstracts, news articles, or
similar are not acceptable). Your article choice must relate specifically to
the discussion topic listed in each individual JAS. You will choose a total of
three relevant articles (one article per JAS) and write a thorough summary of
the information presented in each article (you must write a minimum of 200
words with a 400 word maximum per JAS). Be sure to
provide the URL or the journal name, volume, date, and any other critical
information to allow the facilitator to access and review each article.
To write your summary,
click on REQUIRED ESSAYS and choose the JAS that you would like to complete. A
writing program will automatically launch where you can write your summary. When
you are ready to stop, click SAVE.
Prior to course submission you may go back at any point to edit your summaries but you must be certain to click SAVE once you are
done with your edits. For more information on the features of this assignment,
please consult the HELP menu.
You must click SAVE
before you write another summary or move on to another part of the course.
Facilitator Description
Try DI!: Planning & Preparing a Differentiated Instruction
Program has been developed with the widest possible audience in
mind because the core principles of a differentiated approach can be applied K–12.
The primary goal of the course is to provide an overview of DI principles as
well as DI strategies that will help teachers to implement a “theory of
action.” The course will invoke a metaphor for teaching that is woven
throughout the course and extends as the course unfolds. The course offers a
variety of opportunities for reflection and culminates with an observation tool
that will help professionals to align their theories with the actions they take
in the classroom.
Steve Dahl, the instructor of record, has served as a
