Learning how to differentiate learning starts with modifications to current assignments. It all begins with knowing the students need and interests while giving students the opportunity to take ownership in their work. The author focuses on how interdisciplinary units and collaboration connects educators together to share a common goal by focusing on student achievement. Learning how to differentiate shouldn’t be hours of re-creating assignments. Differentiated Instruction for Teachers is an innovative way to use critical thinking skills to create strategies to help all students succeed.
In education, learning is everywhere and anywhere. Breakout boxes are the newest phenomenon in creating gamification as an “escape type classroom” in schools. This new phenomenon exploded into classrooms across the country. Since the conception of Breakout EDU, teachers across the globe have been creating lessons at every level for every course. Creating breakout games on a digital platform brought new ways to access games, create material, and engage students. This book provides everyone with the tools to unlock the potential of Escape room games for yourself. Whether you want to play, create, or just inspire others, get ready to escape the ordinary.
