Teaching is no longer a private practice, and teachers now recognize that learners have differences in knowledge, interests, and preferred learning styles. Supporting Differentiated Instruction: A Professional Learning Communities Approach harnesses the power of professional learning communities (PLCs) with differentiated instruction in a pragmatic approach to better support teachers and better reach students. In practical, conversational language, authors Robin J. Fogarty and Brian M. Pete supply a blueprint for success for teaching all K-12 learners.
