Differentiating Instruction through Technology

The way to teach math is normally through the reading of the textbook, a lecture, and a worksheet.  Yet, there is not much progress made with those students that may need more help than another student.  As one teacher in the classroom with 20-30 students, the ability to help each student is not possible every moment that they need the one-on-one instruction.

In this day and age, technology is available and can help advance student learning in a positive way.  Using tech tools, students can receive differentiated instruction and learn the content that everyone else is learning.  In the video below, Robert Pronovost uses technology received by grants to help accelerate and differentiate instruction in a way that he can help students that show a need for more one-on-one instruction.  He also shares various educational software that is used to teach math.
