Powered by the Differentiated Visual ToolsTM Model
The Differentiated Visual ToolsTM Model is a K-12 discipline-specific approach to systematically teaching content information while integrating instruction in key information processing strategies addressed by Common Core and Career Readiness Standards. This model is based on thoroughly researched principles of instruction and design, and is scientific research-validated in classrooms. The model has three primary components:
Powerful Visual Tools
Our graphic organizers incorporate embedded semantic prompts designed to focus on “essential understandings” associated with a lesson’s objectives. Our research shows that these targeted prompts greatly enhance student learning while at the same time, reduce teachers’ cognitive load. Check out the videos & free samples to see for yourself.
