Group Differentiation

These videos talk a bit about the importance of giving students independence and the opportunity to learn in groups. Although a lot of it targets elementary education, some of the management can be used for our classroom. The first one talks about keeping students on task in groups and holding students accountable. The second video talks about how to differentiate and what the students' responsibilities are and what the teacher's responsibility is. It gives a variety of teaching styles and how to differentiate, even while using direct instruction.

Because these videos are created by math instructors, they have given me (Dana) a few good ideas on how to teach without lecture and more interactively.

Take a look!
