Overview

Whether you’re just starting to implement Differentiated Instruction or are well along in your effort, here’s an essential video-based Professional Development tool to help principals, teacher leaders, and district administrators learn how to promote the use of DI in every classroom. Show the DVD to leadership teams and school improvement groups--or keep it on hand for individual checkout--to convey key concepts that are essential to success with Differentiated Instruction.

Guided by the experience of renowned authority Carol Ann Tomlinson and her work with all types of schools, this program shows an up-close and personal view of the three stages of leading a school to high-quality differentiation. Video scenes illustrate what school leaders do to get started with a differentiated approach, how they work with teachers to support the implementation of Differentiated Instruction in the classroom, and how they monitor progress. Classroom scenes and interviews with teachers and administrators address the issues that school leaders everywhere have with implementing Differentiated Instruction. Accompanying this DVD is a User’s Guide with professional development activities differentiated for workshops, study groups, and individual learning, as well as additional ideas and materials for expanding on the ideas in the program.
