Differentiation with Edzo

Every classroom includes learners with different needs, strengths, and paces. Edzo is designed to make differentiation a natural part of teaching by giving you flexible ways to assign, adapt, and respond to learning.
Differentiation in Edzo focuses on adjusting what learners work on, how they engage with it, and when support or extension is provided.

Differentiating by task

Edzo allows you to assign different learning activities to different learners or groups. You can:
  • Assign different resources to different groups
  • Provide targeted practice for some learners
  • Offer extension activities for others
This supports varied readiness levels within the same class.

Differentiating by level or complexity

You can use the same idea or activity at multiple levels. For example, you might:
  • Remix a ready-made resource to simplify instructions
  • Create a more challenging version of the same activity
  • Adjust prompts or scaffolding for different groups
Remixing allows you to keep the learning goal consistent while adjusting difficulty and support.

Differentiating by pace

Learners progress at different speeds. With Edzo, you can:
  • Allow learners to work at their own pace
  • Reassign activities for additional practice
  • Provide optional follow-up or extension activities
Learners can revisit activities without penalty, supporting confidence and persistence.

Supporting learners who need more help

Edzo makes it easier to identify learners who may need extra support. You can:
  • Monitor progress and attempts as learning happens
  • Identify learners who are stuck or disengaged
  • Assign targeted activities to address gaps or misconceptions
Support can be timely and specific, rather than reactive.

Extending learners who are ready

For learners who are ready to go further, Edzo supports extension without disruption. You might:
  • Assign enrichment activities to individual learners
  • Remix an activity to deepen thinking or complexity
  • Encourage independent exploration of related resources
Extension becomes part of normal classroom flow.

Differentiation across learning spaces

Differentiation can happen across spaces as well as within them. For example:
  • Classroom learning can be reinforced at home
  • Family spaces can support extra practice or curiosity-driven learning
  • Progress across spaces provides a fuller picture of learner needs
This supports continuity without merging learning contexts.
