Learning Differences (MOOC-Ed)
In order to help you change the way your students learn, this course will expand your knowledge related to learning differences, provide actionable strategies to impact the learning experience of your students, and cultivate positive habits of mind.

All of us, children and adults alike, have different strengths and weaknesses in our learning. Historically, however, schools have approached student learning with a one-size-fits-all mentality and have struggled to adapt to changing student needs. That ends now. In order to help you change the way your students learn, this course will expand your knowledge related to learning differences, provide actionable strategies to impact the learning experience of your students, and cultivate positive habits of mind.




At the end of this course, you will have:

- deepened your own understanding of learning differences and the related constructs of motivation, executive function, and working memory;

- explored relevant strategies for supporting students with learning differences;

- and applied strategies in your classroom and provided a more personalized learning experience for all of your students.

Certificates of Completion for Continuing Education Units (CEUs):

A certificate of completion for 20 hours of professional development will be provided on request to participants who: (1) verify that they spent at least 20 hours participating in the course; (2) participated in the discussions and entered at least six postings; (3) submitted the final project; and (4) provided feedback to at least three others’ projects. You can submit the certificate to your local agency with a request for CEUs. Granting of CEUs will be subject to the policies and procedures of your state and local agency.
