Objectives of the Course

Each student in the same class has different needs and developmental and learning characteristics. For this reason, it is unrealistic to expect students with different characteristics to benefit from the uniform education offered to them at the same level. It is possible for all students to benefit from the teaching offered equally, by differentiating the teaching in a way that includes content, process and product dimensions. The aim of this course is to enable pre-service teachers to gain the necessary knowledge, skills and experience to make the necessary differentiations in teaching elements in order for each student to benefit from the teaching given in their classrooms. The aim of this course is to introduce differentiated instruction, which aims to provide instruction to students in need of special education in primary school according to their individual needs, and to explain the steps that teachers will follow when using differentiated instruction and the adaptations they will make
