Foundations and Implications of a Differentiated Classroom
One of the key principles of differentiation is information dissemination to stakeholders including students, parents, colleagues, and others involved in the education community.
In preparing for the first day of a new school year, you decide to create either informational literature – like a brochure or double-sided flyer, or a classroom website explaining the foundations of Differentiated Instruction and its implication in your classroom. Whether you choose to create a brochure, flyer, or classroom website, the information must be specific to your authentic or fictional classroom (i.e., school, grade level, academic content, student population).
Keeping in mind your intended audience for the language, design, and examples, you must include the following information:
- Your plans for creating a safe and secure classroom environment;
- Your definition of differentiating;
- The justification for differentiating in the classroom environment;
- How you will provide a positive learning environment;
- How you will meet the social and emotional needs of your students;
- How you will eliminate student fear of failure and humiliation;
- Examples of what can be expected from student work and assignments;
- Examples of what can be expected from the assessment of student work;
- How you will provide students opportunities to succeed;
- At least three additional resources (your text may be used as one source) for education stakeholders on differentiation (i.e., books, articles, websites, etc.)
Be creative! Whatever you choose to create, provide access to your instructor by uploading all the necessary links or text in a document. Use your course text and two scholarly articles in the Ashford Online Library or Google Scholar to support your research. Although a typical brochure or flyer is 2 pages (front and back) there is not a page or length requirement for this assignment, as that will limit your creativity; however, each rubric-based requirement must be fully and thoroughly addressed. If you plan to create a classroom website, you must provide access to the website to your instructor. Be sure to provide proper APA citation for any sources that you use and include a title page and reference page(s) when applicable.
Feel free to use these websites as a starting point for creating a brochure or flyer:
Below you will find an example of a pamphlet on differentiating for a school district. While this pamphlet is much briefer than the details that you’ll provide in yours, it will provide you with an example.
Feel free to use these websites as a starting point for creating a classroom website:
- Weebly– allows educators to create free class websites
- SchoolRack– free website and educational blog forum
- WordPress– software to create free website or blog

Carefully review the Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.
Now that you have been introduced to the broad framework of becoming a culturally competent teacher, it is your challenge to make the connection between differentiating and the prospective impact this concept has in making learning experiences more of a success for students in diverse classrooms.
Watch the following video:
The video refers to the ideologies of becoming a culturally responsive teacher and explores the Seven Principles of Culturally Responsive Teaching.
View the short and informative video, then respond to these questions in relation to the video and your personal experiences in your Discussion Post:
- What would you identify as an important outcome of building relationships with your students while focusing on a culturally inviting environment that is physically safe, while also providing an engaging and positive learning experience?
- Considering your personal experience as a student, any professional experiences, and your current and past higher-education based learning, are the Seven Principles of Culturally Responsive Teaching theory realistic or idealistic? Be sure to support your opinion with scholarly citations in APA format both in the body of your post and at its conclusion.
Guided Response: Review at least two of your peers’ postings and extend their learning and the discussion by asking them to clarify their point of view, provide examples or evidence. From reading your peers’ post share an insight or strategy that you learned from the video or your reading that may cause them to evaluate their thoughts.
