Active Learning 

  • Emphasize that the process of acquiring knowledge and the development of concepts, skills, and attitudes are of fundamental importance.
  • Design learning experiences that include opportunities for cooperative learning and for individual inquiry
  • Design interdisciplinary curriculum opportunities so that students can understand the connections in the knowledge they are learning to other fields and to real-world applications
  • Use technology to explore knowledge, to conduct investigations and to produce products

 Diversified Instruction                                

 Teach using a variety of strategies and approaches.

  • Use flexible grouping
  • Use assessment to understand student needs and design responsive instruction
