4. Inclusieve didactiek

De docent past een inclusieve didactiek toe door de interactie, eventueel in de thuistalen, in de klas te stimuleren om tot beter begrip van de lesstof te komen. De docent creëert een contextrijke leeromgeving door actief de culturele achtergronden van leerlingen bij de lesinhoud te betrekken. Hierin is de docent zich bewust van de verschillen in de klas. Door flexibel of heterogeen te differentiëren blijft iedereen bij de les betrokken. Gedurende de les reageert de docent positief en proactief op gedrag en maakt het daarmee makkelijker voor leerlingen om gewenst gedrag te laten zien.
