Leading and Managing a Differentiated Classroom (6-12) | Teaching Channel

Do you find yourself wondering what it takes to create a classroom where diverse learners feel engaged, supported, and capable of success? This online course for teachers takes a deep dive into a variety of practical strategies to help middle and high school teachers meet the diverse needs of today’s learners through the powerful framework of differentiation. This course explores the four key areas of differentiation — by content, process, product, and learning environment — and provides concrete examples for applying them in secondary classrooms. Teachers will learn how to adapt curriculum materials, design flexible learning activities, offer multiple ways for students to demonstrate understanding, and create supportive environments that honor individual differences. Teachers will explore topics such as tiering, implementing choice, using rubrics, and digital differentiation. Finally, teachers will thoroughly examine several real-world examples of how each of the four types of differentiation can be applied at the middle and high school levels in each of the major content areas (ELA/reading, science and math, and history and social science.). By the end of this continuing education course, teachers will have a solid understanding of the necessary differentiation tools needed to foster engagement, equity, and academic growth for all students and intentionally design lessons that balance rigor with accessibility, ensuring that every learner has the opportunity to thrive.
