Components of Instructional Differentiation​

5 components of instruction can be differentiated​

1. Content – what a student needs to learn or how the student will gain access to the knowledge, ideas, and skills​
2. Process – how the student will come to master and “own” the knowledge, ideas, and skills
3. Product – how the student will summatively show what they have learned​
4. Affect – the climate that encompasses the learning and interactions among students and teacher​
5. Environment – the personal, social, and physical arrangements in the classroom.​

All of these elements can be differentiated to address students’ readiness needs, their interests, and their learning profile or preferences.​
