Did you experience any of the strategies of differentiated instruction listed in the text? If so, indicate which ones (such as stations, problem-based learning) you experienced and your reaction to this kind of learning. If not then discuss the benefits it holds for students in our schools today.

I never experienced any differentiated learning approaches. But I can see how some, like Choice Cards, can be beneficial. Some students who are weak in some areas can choose to picture something they've never done before, or they can choose a new thing to learn from. What I like about this approach is that it gives the student an option. 

The complex instruction method looks very interesting as well, because students are circulated and are given open-ended tasks. This allows them research the subject they are assigned with more possibilities.
