DI/UbD -Chapter 9
Reflection:
Chapter nine begins by reviewing the key elements of integrating differentiated design in the classroom and lesson plans. The authors point out that there is happy medium when differentiating: teachers need to differentiate and tailor to the needs of certain students, but not to the extent that the class as a whole does not succeed. The authors also share several observable indicators that can aid in the detection of differentiation. Chapter nine also gives an example of a nutrition unit that uses the backward design, and how it is differentiated by the instructor.
Reflection:
We found the chapter useful for determining what is important in specific content areas; it also did a great job of referring back to the previous chapters and connecting them all. The unit model helped clear things up; the sample unit and the chapter will serve as great references later on.
