Planning to Address Learner Variability in the Classroom: Workshop a lesson or unit to increase rigor, student interest (and teacher interest)

In this session we will be taking a look at how to increase the opportunity for learning in our lessons based on what you know about your students, the curriculum and the relationship between the two. We will talk about how our understanding of learner variability can impact the amount of choice and independence incorporated into a single lesson or unit. Student engagement increases dramatically when given choice about how they will learn and what they will learn, combined with clear goals and expectations and meaningful and challenging content.
