Dimension 2.4 Learning Centers/Stations

"The Teacher:

• Adapts lessons with a wide variety of instructional strategies to address individual needs of all students.
• Consistently monitors the quality of student participation and performance.
• Always provides differentiated instructional methods and content to ensure students have the opportunity to master what is being taught.
• Consistently prevents student confusion or disengagement by addressing learning and/or social/emotional needs of all students."

• Are stations differentiated by interest, skill-level, or learning-style - allowing an individual student to pick a course of investigation that best fits his or her needs?
• Are there mechanisms built into the stations that allow teachers to monitor student participation and performance?
• Are the students allowed a platform where they ask each other questions and rely on the collective expertise in the room to solve problems?
