In this article, Tomlinson outlines one of the most prevalent problems in teaching today, which is how to reconcile the needs of differential teaching, that is, teaching to the abilities and needs of each student, with the rigorous demands of standards, which often makes teachers feel that they have to forego differential teaching in order to "teach to the test." An overview is offered and then the writer's reaction to the author's argument. No additional sources cited.
