Differentiation
Rationale
Engineering units are planned in such a way as to give all learners an equal opportunity to achieve with respect to their individual learning style.
As such lessons are structured to accommodate the various modes of learning encountered in a diverse range of students studying a variety of
subjects. Planning takes full account of the requirements of Equality and Diversity(E&D), Safeguarding (SAFE) and Every Learner Matters (ELM),
however to facilitate efficient and effective lesson planning a code structure has been developed. The code will highlight exactly where and
which type of E&D, SAFE or ELM activity is taking place at various points in the lesson, more on this later.
Under normal circumstances, lecturers will plan lessons to follow a set format. The format is shown below:
List/display lesson objectives (SMART)
Taster/Icebreaker
Toolbox talk
Recap prior learning
Explain forthcoming lesson objectives
Lecture/demonstrate
Assessment activity
Recall learning throughout the lesson and at the close
Obviously different subjects will require some adjustments to the approach outlined above, but it is expected that although the style of
the lessons will differ with respect to the teaching and learning activities, adhering to the format itself will allow the lecturer to plan and
cover all of the enriching aspects of a lesson in addition to the outcomes required by the awarding body curriculum.
As a guide, lecturers should always keep learning and assessment activities SMART, therefore it would not be unusual for a lecturer to be
only covering one or two objectives for a lesson, however in the case of some of the more complex areas, objectives could feasibly span
a number of weeks.
Enrichment
Equality and Diversity will be at the forefront of all lesson, activity and assessment planning. To keep things simple, the code shown in
the following table outlines the major pedagogic approaches to Equality and Diversity and gives a code to each of the activities.
For example if a lecturer uses the code CO-OP 7 you will know that the students are taking part in co-operative learning and that the
activity is based on respecting the views of others.
From the table it can be seen that there are 58 different areas where E&D can be integrated with lessons. In many cases 3 or 4 areas of
E&D + other areas of enrichment could be covered by one activity. The lecturer will be able to show where and when this is occurring
very easily and it is hoped the process should not only simplify the planning of lessons but also make the process of reflection,
evaluation and observation somewhat easier.

Safeguarding
Defined as:
“The process of protecting children from abuse or neglect, preventing impairment of their health and development, and ensuring they are growing up in circumstances
consistent with the provision of safe and effective care that enables children to have optimum life chances and enter adulthood successfully”.
The engineering team will endeavor to always foster an atmosphere of calm with the aim of building mutual trust within all the lessons
planned and delivered by the teaching team. Much of the process will require careful monitoring of individual and group progress and
the encouraging of feedback from all stakeholders involved. In terms of the lessons, safeguarding will mainly be covered in the toolbox
talk section of the lesson, where lecturers will be able to choose from a wide range of short safety demonstrations, lectures and
interactive activities prior to covering the main objective of the lesson itself.
Every Learner Matters
This is covered in many of the areas already discussed. The 5 main aims of ELM are:
Being Healthy (ELM 1)
Staying Safe (ELM 2)
Enjoying and Achieving (ELM 3)
Making a Positive Contribution (ELM 4)
Achieving Economic Wellbeing (ELM 5)
Where appropriate ELM will be outlined in the lesson plan
Differentiation
Casual observation of the E&D table will reveal that differentiation is more than adequately covered. However one area that is not listed
is differentiation by resource. Lecturers will always strive to construct lessons that give learners multiple pathways to success. This
means that all of the tasks that students will be required to undertake, must be fully resourced and supported. Furthermore continuous
assessment of provision should always include an evaluation of how resources can be better employed as provision progresses.
Having the right resources and support available means that students have the opportunity to attempt any of the tasks required by the
unit at any stage of the unit. Be that task a pass, merit or distinction outcome. This allows students who have the benefit of prior
learning or show great aptitude for a subject to progress at their own pace. Conversely the lecturer having thoughtfully prepared the
resources and lesson will be able to identify students who require further instruction or help.
Resources will generally be multisensory. Assessment will always, wherever possible be conducted in a variety of different ways and this
will be fully shown on the lesson plan sheet.

Danger of DC voltages
Activity 1 > Learning Outcome 1
Introduce topic
Introduce single phase AC waveforms
looking at the major characteristics and
measurements relating to a standard
sine wave
Activity 2 > Learning Outcome 1
Look at the practical application of some
common calculations used to predict the
behavior of single phase circuits. This will
be based upon learners building a circuit
and measuring its inputs and outputs,
then relating the results to theory
