Catering to the Needs of ALL Learners: Educating the World’s Future Leaders

Merging of Powerful Teaching Approaches means Greater Learning Options for ALL Learners

In this day and age, more than ever, there is greater need for catering to the needs of ALL learners irrespective of what their learning needs may be. Everyone is a learner, e.g. in a rapidly changing world, we all are compelled to learn new things every day. Differentiated-multicultural instruction (D-MCI). Good teaching caters to the needs of ALL students by ensuring that ALL students reach their full potential. For more information, see my ResearchGate site.

ALL of Us are Capable Learners/Teachers that Can Make the World a Better Place

Irrespective of the various ASSETS that we may bring to the table, there is no doubt that those assets will render themselves invaluable if we have a culture that encourages each individual to explore their assets to the fullest potential. It is only when this is done that we can rest assured that Everyone’s Learning needs have been catered to. Once this is done, we are more likely than not to acclaim that the various learning needs are being met. How does this translate into our quest for a better society? Good teaching begets good students and good students beget successful individuals who then become future leaders. Great future leaders ensure sound policies that will in turn lead to a more just and equitable society.
