Differentiated instruction has been implemented to address diverse learning styles, interests, and various levels of ability identified within her class. In order to promote collaborative learning, she often has her students work in small groups or in pairs to accomplish certain tasks. This not only encourages students to ask each other for information if they get stuck on a problem, transforming them into proactive learners rather than passively receiving information from the teacher. In addition, it also can develop their collaborative skills and abilities that are essential to succeed in today’s work environment where most people need to work in teams and support to one another everyday.
