Differentiation and Technology
Our vision is to ensure the
success of each student.
We can help accomplish this by using
differentiation strategies and technology
in our classrooms.
All of our students are different,
yet we want them all to obtain
the same goal.
How do we identify students for
differentiation in our classroom?
Analyze students’ answers from…
• class discussions
• student responders (clickers)
• answers on individual white boards
• checkpoint/quiz results
• Stick It!
• probes (Boot Camp)
Stick It! Math in the Fast Lane assessment
Easily sort proficient students from those who still
need extra help.
