In my life I have been fortunate to have explored fascinating places around the world.  There is one particular city though, that keeps giving me new emotions every day. It is Roma (or Rome).
Its variety of architectures that stands clearly apart from other "megacities", Its unparalleled history legacy and Its intimate and quieter sides make Rome a city that does get into your bloodstream.

Rome has been documented in different ways and for different purposes but few videos make you appreciate this city through local's eyes. 

I have dedicated months filming everyday's moment to describe a day in Rome through a roman's eyes. This short film is the result. Let me indulge you for a few minutes.

Some students struggle in school, but there are ways to help them overcome academic challenges.

Whether they are challenged in math, English, science, or history, the result is similar. The notion that they aren't good at something leads them to believe they just didn't have what it takes to get through it.

Sadly, struggling students often give up, believing they just aren't good at school.

Many people are familiar with the term " growth mindset," popularized by Carol Dweck. Her research found that people who believe they can develop their talents through effort, strategy, and guidance have a growth mindset. They tend to have better outcomes than people with a fixed mindset, who think talent is an innate gift.

The growth mindset is based on the understanding that the brain is like a muscle, and that effort, or perseverance, helps that muscle develop.

Everyone learns from mistakes and failures, creating more resilient brains.

But effort alone is not enough to help struggling students. They need learning strategies, also called "struggle strategies," when they face academic challenges.

Using "Struggle Strategies" to Spark Learning

Effort without struggle strategies rarely translates to learning: Over time, students will devalue their effort because they won't see benefits from those attempts.

In order to avoid emphasizing effort over concrete learning techniques, researchers have identified a number of practical strategies to help students learn when they struggle.

8 Strategies for Students Who Struggle

1. Clarify the task: Have students carefully reread the directions or ask for more information on the assignment to be sure they understand what they are being asked to do.

2. Ask for help early: Students shouldn't wait until they are lost and discouraged to seek help. Ask them to be as specific as they can about what they need help with.

3. Check their steps: Review the process they used to try to complete the assignment, checking to be sure nothing was wrong or forgotten.

4. Think out loud: Encourage students to vocalize about what they are doing to solve the problem, and when they do, share why you think their approach is the right one. When people talk out loud, they often listen as if they were hearing another person, and the source of a mistake or problem may jump out.

5. Break it down: Teach students how to take a large and complex task or problem and break it into smaller steps.

6. Write down what they know: Have students write down what they know or what they can do in order to identify what they don't know. When they have identified the gaps in their knowledge or skills, encourage them to seek help to fill in those gaps.

7. Try another method: If they know more than one way to complete the task or assignment, encourage them to try a different method. Even if the new method isn't successful, a new approach may help them better understand the task or the assignment.

8. Make a plan: For tasks and assignments that will take a significant amount of time to complete, have students develop a plan to identify the steps they need to take to complete the task-and clarify when they will take those steps.

Discovering Internal Motivations

When students are equipped with concrete skills for tackling challenges, it helps boost their motivation for future tasks. And helping students to understand that effort improves their brains provides another powerful motivation.

Every day, we are learning more about how to help students build on their inner strengths and motivations. Struggle strategies are another tool that can be used to help all students succeed in school, life, and communities.

At a glance

Differentiated instruction is a teaching approach that tailors instruction to students' different learning needs.

It lets students show what they know in different ways.

It doesn't replace the goals in a child's IEP or 504 plan.

Differentiated instruction is a teaching approach that tailors instruction to all students' learning needs. All the students have the same learning goal. But the instruction varies based on students' interests, preferences, strengths, and struggles.

Instead of teaching the whole group in one way (like a lecture), a teacher uses a bunch of different methods. This can include teaching students in small groups or in one-on-one sessions.

Students have "multiple options for taking in information, making sense of ideas, and expressing what they learn," says Carol Ann Tomlinson, an educator who has done innovative work in this area.

According to Tomlinson, there are four areas where teachers can differentiate instruction:

1. Content: Figuring out what a student needs to learn and which resources will help

2. Process: Activities that help students make sense of what they learn

3. Projects: Ways for students to "show what they know"

4. Learning environment: How the classroom "feels" and how the class works together

This approach works well with the response to intervention (RTI) process used in some schools. The goal of RTI is to address learning struggles early. Students get extra support before they fall behind their peers.

Special Education

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act of 2004 (IDEA) aligns IDEA closely to the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), helping to ensure equity, accountability and excellence in education for children with disabilities.

Note that IDEA 2004 is in effect as of July 1, 2005, with the exception of the Highly Qualified provision, which has been in effect since the law's signing on December 3, 2004.

On August 14, 2006, the official copy of the final Part B regulations of the IDEA 2004 was published in the Federal Register .

This website was created to provide a "one-stop shop" for resources related to IDEA 2004 and implementing its regulations. It is a "living" website and will change and grow as resources and information become available. When fully implemented, the site will provide searchable versions of IDEA 2004 and the regulations, access to cross-referenced content from other laws (e.g., the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), etc.), video clips on selected topics, topic briefs on selected regulations, links to OSEP's Technical Assistance and Dissemination (TA&D) Network and a Q&A Corner where you can submit questions, and a variety of other information sources.

As they search for an approach capable of both meeting the needs of diverse learners and strengthening the instruction in the general education classroom (i.e., Tier 1 instruction), the kindergarten and first-grade teachers at Washington Elementary discover Peer Assisted Learning Strategies for reading (PALS-R or PALS). PALS, modeled after ClassWide Peer Tutoring (CWPT), is an approach to teaching children important reading skills. It complements the existing reading curriculum by providing research-validated learning strategies through peer-mediated instruction (i.e., peer pairing, peer tutoring). In the PALS approach, teachers pair a high-performing reader with a low-performing one in order to complete activities designed to promote the development of reading skills. PALS also incorporates:
