1. As a future teacher, how will you influence the class interactions considering
the students’ individual differences in terms of disabilities and giftedness?
2. What strategies will you use to maximize the benefits of diversity in the
classroom?
There are several strategies that I could use to maximize the benefits of
diversity in the classroom. However, the strategies that I think suitable to handle
such learners are cooperative learning strategy and project-based learning
strategy. According to research, students learn more successfully when they
cooperate or when they are working together. That is why, I will use cooperative
learning strategy so that students can determine how they differ from one
another in a group. As a result, students understand why they differ from one
another and embrace their differences. Moreover, through this strategy, students
that are gifted can assist students who are struggling to learn. Another strategy
is projectbased learning strategy. This strategy encourages students to learn by
applying knowledge and skills through an engaging experience. Students are
involved in recognizing a real-world issue and engaging in hands-on learning to
find a certain solution. Furthermore, this strategy allows each student to learn in
a way that is relevant to their interests, abilities, and needs. As a result, project-
based learning strategy is an appropriate strategy for students of any race,
ethnicity, or religion. And lastly, this strategy is for any student who wants to
learn more about people and how to interact with them in meaningful ways.
