The Diversified Classroom
Giving Responses to the Needs of All StudentsContents The author suggests in his book a general strategy, the think versus sink aproach, which puts it to the teacher to think rather than sink. Their approaches and strategies for organizing and planning class, the result of extensive teaching experience in primary and secondary classrooms, are a great contribution to the new educational landscape. For the first time education offers responses to the thousands of children who, with little family support because neither their parents nor their grandparents went to school, are incorporated into schools, and considered an influence on peers that improves the quality of learning.Author Carol Ann Tomlinson is assistant professor of Fundamentals, political and educational leadership on the Faculty of Education at the University of Virginia. She has worked with teachers from Canada and the United States for the establishment of diversified classrooms, and for over twenty years has worked as a teacher in public schools, with students from preschool, primary and secondary schools. Tomlinson has conducted educational programs for students behind and advanced, and has written several articles, chapters and materials relating to this field of research. |
