Welcome and Overview
RETHINIKING INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICE
A Fresh Look at Technology Integration
Objectives
Re-examine instructional practices in light of
your experience, student engagement, and
student success
⦿ Use technology as the cornerstone for
revisioning of differentiation of instruction,
behavior management, and student engagement
⦿ Consider high leverage teaching practices,
infusing technology to improve student
achievement
⦿ Analyze instructional practice to include student
use of appropriate technology
⦿
Quick Review!
⦿ Differentiation
⦿ Classroom Management
⦿ Student
Engagement
What is Differentiated Instruction?
⦿ Adjusting
the curriculum, teaching
strategies, and classroom environment
to better meet the needs of all students
⦿ In a differentiated classroom:
●
●
●
●
●
●
Student differences shape the curriculum
Pre-assessment is typical and frequent
Multiple options for students are offered
There is variable pacing
Varied grading criteria are used
Individual efforts and growth are honored
from How to Differentiate Mixed-Ability Classrooms by Carol-Ann Tomlinson
adapted from http://www.glencoe.com/sec/teachingtoday/subject/di_meeting.phtml
How do I differentiate?
⦿ First, you will need to determine…
● Student Readiness (Growth!)
○ Skill Level and Background Knowledge
○ Are tasks a close match for their skills?
● Student Interest (Motivation!)
○ Attitude and Engagement
○ Do tasks ignite curiosity and passion?
● Student Learning Profiles (Efficiency!)
○ Processing Information
○ Does the assignment require students to work in
a preferred manner?
What do I differentiate?
⦿ Content
● The “what” of teaching
● Topics, concepts, themes presented to students
● Concentrate on the most essential understandings,
concepts, and skills
● Vary the complexity of learning, including materials
(fiction, nonfiction, media, primary sources)
From Differentiating Instruction in the Regular Classroom by Diana Heacox
What do I differentiate?
⦿ Process
● The “how” of teaching
● Ways in which students make sense of content
● Add greater complexity or abstractness to tasks
● Engage students in critical and creative thinking
● Increase the variety of ways in which you ask
them to learn
What do I differentiate?
⦿ Product
● The end results of learning
● Plan units that reflect many ways to
represent learning
● Think: voice and choice, menus, rubrics,
tiered products

Definitions of Classroom Management
⦿
⦿
⦿
⦿
⦿
The process of ensuring that lessons run smoothly
The prevention of disruptive behavior
The process of managing behaviors
Designing an activity, monitoring it, and following up
Both the tangible and intangible techniques we use
to engage students and keep them engaged
KEY: Classroom management is more than just
managing student behavior.
5 R’s for Successful Classroom
Management
⦿ Relationships
⦿ Routines
and Procedures
⦿ Relevance and Expectations
⦿ Room Arrangement
⦿ Reinforcements
Think Back to Daniel Pink in Module 1…
⦿ How
have you applied Daniel Pink’s
three dimensions of intrinsic motivation
to your classroom?
● Autonomy
● Mastery
● Purpose

Student Engagement
⦿ Daniel
Pink’s To Sell is Human
● Attunement
● Buoyancy
● Clarity
Student Engagement
⦿ Daniel
Pink’s To Sell is Human
● Attunement - How do you make yourself
aware of students’ interests and needs?
● Buoyancy
● Clarity
Student Engagement
⦿ Daniel
Pink’s To Sell is Human
● Attunement - How do you make yourself
aware of students’ interests and needs?
● Buoyancy - How do you (and your students)
cope with failure?
● Clarity
Student Engagement
⦿ Daniel
Pink’s To Sell is Human
● Attunement - How do you make yourself
aware of students’ interests and needs?
● Buoyancy - How do you (and your students)
cope with failure?
● Clarity - What strategies do you use to
ensure clear objectives and instruction?
Student Engagement
⦿ ICAP
student engagement framework (Chi, 2014)
● interactive learning
● constructive learning
● active learning
● passive learning
I>C>A>P
In other words, students are more engaged and learn more
through interactive learning than through constructive
learning, and more so than through active learning
or through passive learning
Student Engagement
⦿ ICAP
student engagement framework
● passive learning○student are oriented towards instruction
○information is received by learners
○examples - paying attention to a lecture,
watching a video, listening to a read aloud
Student Engagement
⦿ ICAP
student engagement framework
● active learning ○students are oriented to instruction
○engagement involves physical interaction
and manipulation
○examples - underlining and highlighting
as one reads, modeling a given math
problem, following prescribed science labs
Student Engagement
⦿ ICAP
student engagement framework
● constructive learning ○students generate products beyond
information given
○students create ‘new’ outputs
○examples - taking notes,
comparing/contrasting, integrating arts,
drawing conclusions, self-explaining
Student Engagement
⦿ ICAP
student engagement framework
● interactive learning
○dialog between or among partners in
which: 1) each partner’s contributions are
constructive and 2) sufficient turn-taking
occurs.
○examples - team projects, constructive
controversy, googledoc collaborations,
adaptive learning/teaching apps, debate
Student Engagement
⦿ ICAP
student engagement framework
● interactive learning
● constructive learning
● active learning
● passive learning
I>C>A>P
In other words, students are more engaged and learn more
through interactive learning than through constructive
learning, than through active learning than through passive
learning

Re-engineering a Lesson
You brought a lesson with you today that did not
go ‘as planned.’ Take some time to analyze your
lesson through the lenses of differentiation,
behavior management and student engagement.
⦿ What went well?
⦿ At what point did the lesson veer from what you
had expected?
⦿ Which lens helps you explain the discrepancies?
Prepare to re-engineer your lesson plan!
Re-engineering a Lesson
⦿ Rewrite one or more parts of your lesson plan,
with changes regarding differentiation, classroom
management and/or student engagement in
mind.
⦿ Consider what technology could do for you…
● How could you use technology to enhance
instruction?
● How could students use technology to enhance
their learning?
