Differentiated instruction is the best way to ensure students of all levels are reached. Differentiation of process, content, and product allows for great flexibility on the part of the teacher to exercise their creativity. Students are given choices with their learning and how they demonstrate mastery of the material. One of the greatest gifts we can give our students is the ability to choose and learn how to make good decisions on the part of their education.

The above slide show (be sure to come over to the blog site if your reader stripped the slide show) was created by CoolCatTeacher for one of her presentations at a convention. This slide show shows how technology can seamlessly differentiate for us according to Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences. She has done a fantastic job with this presentation.

Good work letting your readers know that the Slideshare was being stripped out. It’s got me stumped why some blogging platforms display the Slideshare when read in a Reader using RSS and others don’t. Still trying to figure it out – would expect it to be the same for all blogging platforms.

Sue – i agree it would be nice if the readers were a bit more standardized in these things. I realized that some things were stripped out when I subscribed to my own blog and there were things not showing up and I realized then that I was probably missing some things in the other blogs I read. So I try to keep that in mind and make a quick mention about embedded “things” when I post.
