@ElChirimolla LOL....I must have heard my last name 10,000 times the first year.....and it's never just once in a row, it's twice; "Mr. R**********Mr. R*************, I need to (pee, sharpen my pencil, get a new sheet of paper, blow my nose, get a drink).
@Sailorsega "differentiating instruction" is the mantra of many of our administrators. Some interpret it to mean vary your lessons so the least and most capable can all be together and get quality instruction in the same classroom. It saves money on additional staff ;)
@denisemarie1037 To the administrators, it means that you should be teaching to the worst and best students at the same time, but it's more about "assessment" than teaching. You should "assess" a variety of students differently. What should happen is that the students guide the pace of the course, but it usually turns into test-prep anyway. Differentiating instruction actually results in zero teaching, because that's what's left after taking the second derivative.
This video is THE TRUTH! It's always the newest kid in the lowest grade who pees in their pants and is therefore marked FOR LIFE. It will come up at every class reunion and "Remember the time. . . moment!"
#1 thing teachers are most unprepared to deal with is an intelligent logical student who knows just how to annihilate anybodies argument, and a student who knows what rights teachers / students do and don't have, and how to use that to your malicious advantage.
@wbc1 -- You will be "pleased" to know that they have been cramming differentiated instruction, Bloom's and Gardner down our throats for the last two years (at least at UCF).
This was obviously not a real Letterman Top Ten. Someone intercut teachers responses into the Letterman shtick. Listen for the opening and closing Letterman voice - it's not Dave. He laughs at that point in his REAL Top 10 - they just timed it for differentiated instruction.
I was not taught Differentiated instruction in college, but the idea was crammed down my throat from day one in my first week of teaching.
Basically, differentiated instruction involves assessing how much your students know, how they learn and using that knowledge to provide lessons that will allow each student to learn effectively.
I was sick of hearing about differentiated instruction by the end of my 1st year. Bloom's Taxonomy and multiple intelligence also got old.
@LafawnduhDynamite Thanks for your comment. And I'm a teacher in my country.^^;
'differentiated instruction'- a kind of theory which we can learn in pedagogy-was not familiar to me ..when I asked that ~~Well, now it's clear. Have a good day~ From Korea
I got the book for Novice teacher of Harry Wong. Its a great gift even for veteran teacher,too.....although i want to get the complete set of video....
Number 5 is so true!
