Description
Current discussions shift emphasis from what to teach to how to teach. The What (curriculum) and the How (introduction) are symbiotically related; however, most often the terms are considered to be synonymous. Pedagogical practices using classic models of teaching such as group investigation, concept attainment, and advance organizer are demonstrated to illustrate how the principles of a differentiated curriculum can be integrated into these pedagogical practices. Data from a five-year Javits grant studying the effects of differentiated instruction with diverse gifted students are shared with lessons to exemplify and reinforce the relationship between differentiated curriculum and instruction.
