Session Information
Description
As language classrooms become more diverse, effective differentiated instruction has never been more critical for fostering student engagement and success. In this interactive session, educators will build on the foundational strategies from Part 1 by collaborating to design and refine differentiated strategies and activities for use in their language classrooms. Participants will share ideas, engage in hands-on activities, and receive feedback from peers to enhance their differentiated practices. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a set of refined and practical tools and strategies to effectively implement differentiated instruction in their language classrooms. Join us to connect, create, and collaborate in a hands-on workshop designed to build your pedagogical toolkit and your professional community!
