Presentation of Content

Along with presenting yourself in a positive way to your students, It is also extremely important to have unique and successful ways in which you present the content you are wanting to teach. I find presentation of content to be extremely important, because all students learn in their own particular way so the way we present content must be adaptable to every students needs. We want our students to be successful and having productive ways in which to present content will only heighten your students success. Helping your students succeed will in turn boost your confidence in your ability to teach

I know I have posted about differentiation a couple weeks ago but I find it to be important topic!

I wanted to focus more this time on just the presentation of the content and how it can be changed to meet all learners needs.

I found a great slide show presentation of interesting ideas of how to change up the presentation of the content!
Click here to check out this slide show!

Along with great differentiation techniques, the slide show gives great advice about how to go about advocating differentiation in the school you work at.
Some simple ideas to spread the importance of differentiation are getting your committed staff involved! Start simple and work your way to more complex differentiation and lastly help others to be willing to try  new things out! The techniques can always be altered or extended down the road!

  1. Great idea Abby- I couldn't get your slide show to open. It may just be my computer as well... However, I do agree with different teaching strategies. Students learn differently- hands-on, visual, lecture, etc. and we, as teachers, need to adapt accordingly. This can even vary from class to class/year to year. You might teach a lesson one year where it works great for everybody; the next year, it may be a disaster.
    This is something that teachers need to be confortable and confident with. Teachers NEED to be able to think on their toes and adapt their materials for the students. This is important for every student in every classroom!
