Differentiated, Not Individualized

Captions available

The idea

Differentiated instruction is not individualized instruction: it works in heterogeneous classes through flexible grouping that is never fixed, teaching up to challenging goals, and respectful tasks for every student.

In practice

A student in the support group for fractions joins the advanced group for geometry.

Where people slip

Critics question its feasibility in large mixed classes and its relation to tracking, which remains debated.
