Scaffolds and Differentiation: Building Knowledge and Making a Difference with Jayme Adelson-Goldstein
Effective instruction relies not just on delivering information, but on how it’s tailored and structured to meet the diverse needs of learners. Scaffolding, the practice of guiding learners to new levels of understanding through strategic teacher support, is integral to ensuring comprehension and skill acquisition. On the other hand, differentiation, the process of adjusting teaching methods to meet individual learning styles and capabilities, enables instructors to make learning more accessible and meaningful for all participants, regardless of their backgrounds or skill levels.
This IN-PERSON, 6 hour workshop offers you a practical exploration of how scaffolding and differentiating strategies can be used effectively to enhance adult learning experiences. After collaborating to define and distinguish between the techniques, you will dive into a variety of instructional scaffolds and explore the three basic types of differentiation. As a proof of learning task, you’ll have the opportunity to apply the session content by considering scenarios and materials related to your instructional situations in order to determine which scaffolds to employ and how best to differentiate to meet the diverse needs of your adult learners.
