By Richard Cliche, teacher in special needs education

As the Holidays and the beginning of a new year are coming, maybe it’s time to take a moment to rethink our teaching approach in schools in 3 steps.

First, as Carol Ann Tomlinson is saying: « Differentiation is simply a teacher attending to the Learning needs of a particular student, rather than teaching a class though all individuals in it were basically alike« .

Second, the Teach Thought staff made a good post on 8 things to look for in today’s classroom. As education professionnals,  it gives us a cue to make sur that we’re up to date and moving with the flow.

Third, creating a global partnership for to create and use new pedagogies for deep learning could be a new way to work and interact in the big world of education. I think it worth’s to take  a look at it and give it a try.

What about you? What do you think of those 3 steps? Do you have something to propose?

Have nice Holidays!
