Article on how to differentiate instruction

This concise and clear article at the helpful site Teachers Network outlines beginning concepts to take when differentiating instruction. I could see these steps as useful for a Special Educator working with varying student needs in his or her classroom or for a General Educator including a Special Needs student in the general classroom. The concepts are:

• Content: what is taught
• Process: how students understand what is taught
• Product: how students demonstrate understanding
• Affect: how students feel in the classroom
  

Learning Styles Types

One of the issues of Special Education and General Education is attempting to teach to the different types of learning styles so to best address each student's strengths and needs.

Like the previous Teaching Styles post, these Learner Styles apply to adult learners in distance education. The styles apply to K-12 students as well.
