Universal DesignOrigin in the field of architecture.Stairs are the access most of us have to
buildings.Historically, architects have designed
buildings to be accessible for the majority of people, but not for all people.
For some people stairs are a barrier to access: people in wheelchairs, people on roller blades, mothers using baby strollers.

Shapes teaching to provide all students access to the curriculum.
Sees that every learner is unique and will benefit from a flexible curriculum.

Guiding Principles
Multiple means of engagementto tap into learners' interests, offer
appropriate challenges, & increase motivation
Multiple means of processingto give learners various ways of
acquiring information & knowledgeMultiple means of expressionto provide learners alternatives for
demonstrating what they know 7

Why Differentiate?All kids are
different.One size does not
fit all.Differentiation
provides all students with access to all curriculum.

What is Differentiation?“To differentiate instruction
is to recognize students’ varying background
knowledge, readiness, learning styles, and
interests, and to respond to these differences.”

Student DifferencesTraditional:
Student differences are addressed when they become a problem.
Differentiated:Differences become the basis for planning &
instruction.

AssessmentTraditional:
Summative (end of unit).
Differentiated:Diagnostic & formative so instruction responds
to the learner.

Interest/Learning StyleTraditional:
Interest and learning style rarely inform instruction.
Differentiated:Students are guided in making interest &
learning profile-based choices; instruction is based around the ways students learn.

InstructionTraditional:
Much of instruction is whole-class.
Differentiated:Many instructional groupings and
arrangements.

AssignmentsTraditional:
Students are usually given the same assignment to complete.
Differentiated:Multi-option assignments are provided,
allowing choices for demonstrating learning.

Factors Guiding InstructionTraditional:
A single curriculum guide or text is often used.
Differentiated:Student readiness, interest, and learning
profile guide instruction that incorporates multiple materials; curriculum guides & standards are still used, but supplemented by other materials.

ProcessHow the student learns what is being taught
Example: Some students need to interact with the material in a hands-on manner, some might prefer to read a book or interact with material on the computer
