If you’re a teacher who longs to create a classroom that inspires and motivates every student to become the best version of themselves, or an administrator seeking to support your teachers’ growth and autonomy (who finds it difficult to understand how persistent mandates and differentiation can co-exist), this session is for you. Through presentations, dialogue, and experiences, we’ll introduce you to a vision for differentiation that can help bridge the gap between mandates and quality teaching and learning that places the student at the center of decision-making. You'll leave with ideas and a framework for enlivening teaching for your students and you.

Educators often envision differentiation as a toolbox of instructional strategies which, while useful, is also kind of flat–a one-dimensional view of its power and possibilities. Explore three-dimensional differentiation. Watch your thinking about differentiation expand. See your outreach in addressing the needs of your diverse learners multiply.
