Accommodations change HOW a student access instruction and demonstrates knowledge. They do NOT change learning expectations. (The standards stay the same.)
Modifications change WHAT a student is expected to learn. The course objectives/standards ARE modified to meet the needs of each student.
Differentiation refers to a wide variety of teaching techniques and lesson adaptations that educators use to instruct a diverse group of students, with diverse learning needs, in the same course, classroom, or learning environment. Differentiation is commonly used in “heterogeneous grouping”—an educational strategy in which students of different abilities, learning needs, and levels of academic achievement are grouped together.
