Conference Description:

As the diversity in Michigan classrooms (and those across the nation) increases and classroom accountability becomes more prevalent, teachers are reaching out for instructional strategies that will help each child achieve.  Differentiated instruction is becoming an accepted pathway to achieving educational success.

Michigan schools are under severe financial constraint and many out-of-state conferences are beyond the reach of many schools and teachers.  Teachers and administrators are also clamoring for practical strategies.  This conference will be patterned after the Institute on Academic Diversity run by Dr. Carol Tomlinson at the University of Virginia, and will have “core” instruction in the basics of differentiation and a variety of breakout sessions to address different participant needs.

Differentiation cannot be reduced to a “cookbook approach” but it will be important that this conference provide a balance between the overall philosophy and strategy of differentiation and practical, workable units and activities that have been implemented by real teachers in real classrooms.  It is, of course, also critical that this conference be differentiated to provide for a variety of readiness levels, learning styles and interests.

Example breakouts include: 
·       Content-specific session in math, English, science, social studies, foreign language etc.
·       Process sessions in pre-assessment, assessment, learning profiles, specific strategies such as developing tiered lessons, etc.
·       Roundtables for elementary, middle school and high school teachers, and administrators.
·       Technology strategies for differentiating instruction in content specific sessions.
