Review :
"The expectations for teaching in today’s world are steadily increasing. Students expect their teachers to use technology in instruction. Parents and administrators expect teachers to differentiate instruction to reach every student. At first glance it may seem that these two ideas - a flipped classroom and differentiated instruction - aren’t harmonious. However, in this book you will learn how both models can work in concert. Even more importantly you will learn many practical strategies that will allow you to meaningfully differentiate your instruction while flipping your classroom, allowing you the greatest potential to reach all of your students." "The best teachers in traditional classrooms recognize that ′one size fits all′ teaching is unlikely to be optimally effective for all students. They understand the role of differentiated instruction in addressing the needs of the variety of learners they serve. This book shows you how to apply the same insight to flipped classrooms."
