Differentiated Instruction for Diverse Learners

Facilitates teacher candidates’ understanding of and ability to program for the diversity of learners in Ontario classrooms. Teacher candidates will undertake a critical examination of diversity and be exposed to members of diverse communities. They will be introduced to differentiated instruction as a model through which the unique identities of students (i.e., race, ethnicity, culture, gender, sexual orientation, social class, religion, ability, and language) are welcomed and the unique learning needs of students are addressed.
