instruction that is truly tailored to their own needs. The integration of Technology with differentiate
instruction would allow to pace lessons appropriately for each student’s learning level thus meet the
needs of every student in every lesson by promoting learning in the multiple intelligences.

homework and motivate students to learn and to grow. Students would be able to for example learn a
language, communicate and present information, Moreover teachers would be able to collect data for
formative assessments, provide meaningful feedback to students.
