Bartleson, H.

Differentiation in quality teaching. Curriculum Support for Teaching in Languages 7-12 v.8 n.3 p.2-5 2003. Includes bibliographical references. PURCHASE ARTICLE ONLINE (AUD$22): [] The release of the New South Wales Department of Education and Training discussion paper 'Quality teaching in NSW public schools' and the development of the new K-10 languages syllabuses, teachers will have opportunities to reflect on a range of teaching practices to determine how they contribute to improved learning outcomes for students, states the author. In this context, one of those practices which warrants particular consideration is 'differentiation'. Differentiation matches differences in learning abilities within the classroom with a variety of challenging, meaningful tasks in a supportive, learning-focused environment.
