1. What are the different opportunities and constraints for learning?

Learning is most effective when differential development within and across


physical, intellectual, emotional, and social domains is taken into account.
Knowledge on the physical, intellectual, emotional, and social domains of the
learners is an excellent springboard for planning learning activities, materials,
and assessment. There are a lot of opportunities for learning such as Learners
have time and opportunity to practice, use, and apply what they have learned.
Mistakes and approximations are a part of learning. Factual information are
organized around key concepts and not learned in isolation. This promotes
understanding.
However, Often some learners are not learning well because there is a
mismatch between the learning activity and the learners developmental stage.
Basically, diverse learners have different learning styles, understanding level and
comprehension. To avoid this constraints of mismatching of learning activity to
the ability of the students , Teachers should modify the activities and teaching
strategies to cater the needs of the learners and also assessment can be the key
to determine the strength and weaknesses of the students. This will make the
teaching and learning process more effective.

2. How does social factors and individual differences influence learning?

opinion influences learning. Through teachers effort and love for the pupils it will
produce a safe and motivating environment for diverse learners. Therefore,
social factors and individual differences influences learning that the teacher will
be the one who will facilitate and modify the teaching strategies in order to have
an effective learning.

of all students, particularly students from cultural groups that have been
historically underrepresented or that suffer from lower educational achievement
and attainment.
Multicultural teaching that incorporates the histories, texts, values, beliefs,
and perspectives of people from different cultural backgrounds. At the classroom
level, for example, teachers may modify or incorporate lessons to reflect the
cultural diversity of the students in a particular class in order to avoid
stereotyping and discrimination.

It is really necessary to apply multicultural teaching that will enables


educational equity for all students, regardless of culture, and it strives to remove
barriers to educational opportunities and success for students from different
cultural backgrounds. In practice, educators may modify or eliminate educational
policies, programs, materials, lessons, and instructional practices that are either
discriminatory toward or insufficiently inclusive of diverse cultural perspectives.
