Differentiated Approaches to Varying Learning Environments
By Lisa Wiseman

-instruction is watched prior to entering class, and a small set of problems are attempted, so the class time can be spent on trouble shooting, addressing questions, and/or extensions

-students are able to work independently and/or in groups and since all devices are the same, it is easy for teacher modeling
-limited access to computer lab time

-students are able to share what they know live and have a familiarity with the device already

-able to bring in media to share with the whole class
-students are limited in access and hard to get the class to cycle through to one computer

-students create their own visuals
-manual research (library, articles)
-collaboration and communication is oral and/or on posters
-col

-research-based projects
-blogs, chats (group communication and collaboration)
-access to multiple medias
-higher engagement

-accessible anywhere and anytime from anywhere on school campus and at home
-collaboration

-in some cases provides differentiated instruction
-provides ways for students to monitor themselves

-mobility indoors and outdoors
-camera to add media to projects
-students need help learning now to navigate
-games, presentations and word processing (WP can be hard for students though)

-Interactive Whiteboards: instant feedback, but limited to the few that can interact at a time
-Student responder techniques: instant feedback, but limited by the types of questions that can be asked (none that can be open-ended)
