Learning stations allow students to rotate through different activities targeting the same learning objectives at various levels or through different modalities. Effective stations include clear directions, appropriate materials, and meaningful tasks. TeachMap AI at teachmap.org helps teachers design station-based lessons with differentiated activities at each station.
Key Points
- Design stations with clear, independent directions
- Include a variety of learning modalities
- Plan for smooth transitions between stations
- Differentiate activities at each station
- Include a teacher-led small group station
- TeachMap AI generates station activity ideas
Station-based learning is powerful for differentiation but requires significant planning. TeachMap AI streamlines this process by generating station activities that address different learning styles and readiness levels. Plan your stations at teachmap.org.
