Fair Isn't Always Equal: Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Differentiated Instruction is a way of teaching by bringing struggling up to par with the rest of the class. This is done by providing support through scaffolding. Students who are at a slower learning level are given the tools necessary to learn at the same level as the average student. This is valuable information as a teacher. Instead of lowering the level of learning for everybody, struggling students can learn at the necessary level for success. This is important so as to build better students. Students who learn with this style will become more successful as they will be more willing to take risks.
