Hi! Thanks!
So as I understand it, tiering is a form of differentiation by learning style, readiness, or interest. It includes a pre-assessment, and is geared to different levels of difficulty. The teacher matches students to the appropriate assignment, or student choice may be allowed. Post-activity assessment may be carried out through rubrics, tests, checklists, contracts, self-evaluation, peer evaluation, or conferences. Have I got it about right?
