Educational neuroscience is an exciting new discipline that brings together research from psychology, neuroscience and pedagogy to help educators make the best curriculum, instructional and assessment choices for effective learning. Locate an article in the Online Library that investigates findings from cognitive and neuroscientific research. Provide a brief summary of the article and explain how • Key Principles of Effective Differentiation. Analyze the five key principles of effective differentiation and discuss which of the five will be the most difficult for you to embrace with a ―fluid or ―growth mindset.‖ What are the obstacles you see that will inhibit implementing the principles in your current or future educational setting? Which of the five is the easiest to accept? Why?

  4. edu 673 ASH Course Tutorial EDU 673 Week 2 DQ 1 Fluid and Fixed Mindsets EDU 673 Week 2 DQ 2 Effective Differentiated Curriculum Effective Differentiated Curriculum. Visit the Discovery Education: Lesson Plan Library website and locate a lesson plan that represents the grade level and subject area you are teaching or are interested in teaching. In your discussion, post a link to the lesson plan that you have selected. Next, answer the following: a. Is the lesson constructed so students will be consistently aware of what they • Fluid and Fixed Mindsets. Souza and Tomlinson (2011) explain, "Mindsets are the assumptions, expectations, and beliefs that guide our behavior and our interaction with others"(p. 19). A teacher's mindset is of utmost importance in the differentiated classroom. Think about your least favorite teacher and consider what their mindset must have been. Share how you felt in the class and how the teacher's mindset affected your own well-being and academic success as a student.

Imagine it is the first day of school and you are welcoming a whole new set of students to class. Create your own welcoming activity for the first day of school that demonstrates how you will incorporate differentiation through a growth mindset. You are not limited to any particular format, but you must address the following: a. How you will provide a safe and secure classroom climate b. How you will provide a positive learning environment • EDU 673 Week 2 Journal (Ash Course)

  6. edu 673 ASH Course Tutorial EDU 673 Week 3 Assessment and Differentiation EDU 673 Week 3 DQ 1 Effective Assessment Effective Assessment. Provide an example from your own classroom or from your past educational experience of effective assessment. What elements made it effective? Did it lead to improved teaching and learning? Why or why not? What was its overall purpose? Next provide an example of ineffective assessment. What elements made it ineffective? What were the results of the assessment? Did it hinder your learning? Lower you confidence as a learner? Change your motivation? • Assessment and Differentiation. For this assignment you will need a lesson plan or unit that includes an assessment. You may use one of your own, create a new one, or modify one that you find. Make sure the assessment contains all the elements of effective assessment and then explain or provide measures to show: • a. How it aligns to the essential knowledge, understanding, and skills of the targeted learning outcomes. • b. How students will be absolutely clear of those targeted learning outcomes

  7. edu 673 ASH Course Tutorial EDU 673 Week 3 DQ 2 Summative Assessment EDU 673 Week 3 Journal (Ash Course) EDU 673 Week 3 Journal (Ash Course) • Summative Assessment. There are two types of summative assessments, those that assess rote-knowledge skills and those that assess higher-level executive functions. Using the information in your text and from your own educational experience, develop an argument that supports the use of both types of summative assessments. Explain and defend the appropriate use of each type of assessment

  8. edu 673 ASH Course Tutorial EDU 673 Week 4 Differentiated Instruction for Student Readiness EDU 673 Week 4 DQ 1 Student Readiness Student Readiness. After reading Chapter Five of the course text, create a checklist of the nineteen guidelines for differentiating curriculum in response to student readiness as a separate document. You can group the guidelines in whatever way makes the most sense for you. You are creating the checklist to keep as a tool for use in your current or future classrooms • Differentiated Instruction for Student Readiness. For this assignment you will need a lesson plan or unit that includes measurable learning outcomes. You may continue to use the lesson plan from Week Three, or you can create a new one or modify one that you have found. Provide and explain differentiated teaching strategies that are appropriate for a variety of students at different levels of readiness. Your strategies must align to the learning outcomes. Make sure to include the following: • a. Differentiated access • b. Differentiated process

  9. edu 673 ASH Course Tutorial EDU 673 Week 4 DQ 2 Student Interest EDU 673 Week 5 Differentiating for Learning Profile Differentiating for Learning Profile. For this assignment you will need a lesson plan or unit that includes measurable learning outcomes. You may continue to use the lesson plan from previous weeks, create a new one, or modify one that you have found. For this assignment, make sure to address the following: a. Explain and provide possible differentiated teaching strategies (aligned to the learning outcomes) that are appropriate for a variety of students with different learning profiles. • Student Interest. After watching the talks by Sir Ken Robinson (TED Talk – Ken Robinson Says Schools Kill Creativity, and TED Talk – Sir Ken Robinson: Bring on the Learning Revolution!), answer the following questions: • a. Does differentiation make the difference between a good teacher and a great teacher? Why or why not? • b. Describe a time when you were working on something or learning about something and it felt like time flew by. How will you create that same experience for students?

  10. edu 673 ASH Course Tutorial EDU 673 Week 5 DQ 1 Learning Style Debate EDU 673 Week 5 DQ 2 Culture and Gender Culture and Gender. Share with your classmates how you believe your own culture and gender influence your teaching and learning. Do you believe your gender served as an advantage or a disadvantage in your own academic experience? How about your culture? Explain how you will account for the ways in which gender may affect your students’ learning. How will you adapt your teaching so that your classroom will be a good fit for students from all backgrounds? • Learning Style Debate. The four aspects of learning profile are controversial. Highly respected researchers argue vigorously for the existence of cognitive styles or intelligence preferences. Other noted psychologists argue that the construct of cognitive style or intelligence preference makes little sense in terms of learning. In this discussion, we will briefly debate the validity of both arguments. First, find your assigned ―Debate Group‖ below. • Debate Grouping (by first letter of last name): • A-L: For cognitive styles or intelligence preferences

You will need to create a step-by-step timeline that shows your commitment to personal and professional growth in creating academically and culturally diverse classrooms. Instructions for the Final Project Using the exercises for personal and professional growth from Chapters Two through Eight of the course text, create an eight- to ten-page • Personal and Professional Growth. As you reflect on this course, what assumptions about differentiated instruction have been confirmed? Have others been challenged? Which? What steps will you take to modify your teaching strategies now or in the future? What specific goals will you set for becoming a more academically responsive teacher? What do you believe is the best piece of advice you can give yourself and others when it comes to differentiated instruction?
