I agree. There will be students that are challenged and some that are not. Everyonr learns at different levels this is why it is so important to adapt.
Hi Bonnie,
Good point about learning differences and preferences. What are some strategies you use to accommodate the different learning needs in your courses? Thanks for your input on this.

One method that would helps students who have trouble with materials is grouping "smarter" students with "mid-range" to the "slower" children, and trying to openly ask students if they have any questions and encourage them to ask.
I like your method of working with a class to answer questions. However, I have found in my experience recently, the ones who respond very well aloud in class are not always the ones who get the best grades. Sometimes the greater participator in class doesn't answer the printed test questions well. Anyway, what I'm saying is it's difficult to generalize at times who is "smarter".
