Differentiating instruction: Right meets Left!

Ellen McGoran, a teacher at Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy in Ohio, sent her thoughts about ExploreLearning.com to us last week:

This is the third year that I have used this website with my students. I have used it for algebra 1, geometry, and a senior level topics course. It is an incredibly powerful tool (and more than worth the price for a subscription).

It is especially valuable for the "right-brained" learner in a very left brained subject such as algebra. We love it!

Thank you Ellen!

At ExploreLearning, we try to design Gizmos that can challenge and stimulate advanced students, while at the same time provide a great entry point for learners who may initially be daunted by concepts in mathematics and science. We are in total agreement with Ellen that interactive visual models are a great way for more 'right-brained' students to get at many topics -- and once students become comfortable with a given topic's fundamentals, they can progress to exploring more of its advanced aspects -- all in the same Gizmo.
