Content is what the students will learn. Usually this is determined by state education standards. Each student must master certain skills by the end of the year. Teachers then focus on teaching those skills to students so that they can meet state standards. Although each student is learning similar, if not the same skills, as other students in different schools, teachers can use tech tools to differentiate content. These tools can present information in different ways, vary the source of information, and allow the teacher different methods to keep students engaged. The proper content is still being taught, but the delivery is appropriate for the needs of the class.

Process determines how a student is learning new material. Some teachers use lectures, while others prefer activities. Groups, location change, and videos are some other options teachers will use to differentiate the learning process. Each student learns differently and finding different ways for students to process their learning allows teachers to reach more of their class. Tech tools can be an effective way to differentiate the learning process. Using different tools to help students through their learning process can help students be more engaged with the material and help students understand the material better.

Product refers to how students show what they have learned. This is done through assessments, often quizzes or tests. The teacher gives students questions to answer, and then the students use what they have learned to answer the questions to show their knowledge of the material. However, this can be done multiple ways, not just with pen and paper. Different Tech Tools can differentiate how students show what they have learned. Gamification allows students to stay engaged through competition and show what they have learned in a different and new way.

Canva is a creative and engaging program that allows teachers to better display content. Different layouts, images, and formatting allow the teacher to present the content in a creative manner. While the content may be given in a movie theater style, the teacher can capture the attention of students in a different manner than writing on the white board. Images show students how the content can be applied, and information is provided in an easy to read format. This can be beneficial for students with dyslexia with the words provided in an easy to read font. Teachers with poor handwriting can also benefit by being able to supply information in way that is easier for the class to read. For a 9th grade algebra class Canva would be very beneficial. Images to show how certain problems would apply to the real world, providing functions/formulas, and showing the class different problems can help keep the class engaged. Time is saved since the problem is already on the board rather than the teacher having to write out each problem. Canva allows the teacher to provide students with content in a format that is creative, attention grabbing, and easy to view.

Edpuzzle is an inventive way for teachers to keep their students engaged during a unit. This uses primarily a blockbuster format. Content is provided at the pace the student requires but the content is limited to what the teacher has provided. Edpuzzle allows students to interact with content throughout a lesson. Students answer questions, watch videos, and provide responses to what they have learned. The teacher provides students with the material and students learn at the pace that best suits them, as long as the material is completed by the set deadline. Edpuzzle would be beneficial when teaching 9th grade algebra. Students can watch videos to learn material at their own pace, solve problems, and review parts of the lesson to gain a better understanding. The teacher can provide students with lessons that they can access throughout the year so that they can understand the content better. The teacher is also able to look at students work to see where they are in their learning. This can help the teacher determine what topics students have understood and what topics need to be reviewed in class.

Gizmos is an inventive online program that allows students to conduct online experiments. Teachers can select state standards for grade and subject to find materials that best fit the needs of their class. State standards are still being met and the Gizmos can be a beneficially way to add variety to the learning process. This streaming model allows students to access materials from any location, given that there is Wifi, and practice their skills to better improve their understanding. This process allows students to work hands on with the material, and see how it can influence different situations. Gizmos would add variety to a 9th grade algebra class. A lesson using Gizmos would provide variety to a class and help the teacher reach more of the class. Students who benefit from visuals and working with material hands on would benefit from this program. Students can see how algebra relates to situations in the world and better understand why they are learning the material. Rather than just learning from a singular source, the teacher, students can differentiate the learning process to teach themselves, learn from peers, or learn from other sources while the teacher remains available to assist when necessary.

When using Google Slides, Pear Deck is a great add on to increase student engagement. As the teacher goes through a lesson students have access to the presentation. Throughout the lesson the teacher can then have students respond to different questions. Students then type their responses on their own device. This differentiation and blockbuster model of the learning process allows for more students to share their thoughts during a lesson. Quieter students can then avoid pressure from their peers and share their insights with the teacher. The teacher can then see more insights from the class. Pear Deck also allows the teacher to see how many students have responded to a question so that the lesson can be appropriately paced. Another function Pear Deck allows is the ability to share sites and articles. Rather than having students try and find material, the teacher can share the material through the presentation bringing students quickly to the necessary information. 9th grade algebra could make good use of Pear Deck. Math can be dominated by a couple of students in each class. Giving more students opportunity to answer questions without the risk of giving a wrong answer in front of their peers provides the teacher with a better understanding of what the class has mastered and what they still need to work on.

Delta Math is a great tool for any math classroom. Teachers can create different assignments for their class using this math program. By searching for different topics based on grade level, the teacher can create appropriate assignments for their class. The teacher selects the desired problem, time limit, points required, and points per question. Students can then work on the assignment wherever they have a Wifi connection. This streaming model of instruction gives students a different way to practice and show what they have learned. Delta Math would be beneficial in a 9th grade algebra classroom. The teacher can see what students have mastered and what still needs to be worked on. Based off the data the teacher can then dedicate time to what students need to practice so that the class has a better understanding of the material. This program also saves time for the teacher. Rather than having to create different problems for students to solve, the teacher can select already created problems for the students to solve. This allows the teacher more time to work individually with students.
