Approaches that tailor teaching to what each learner has mastered or needs, including mastery learning, differentiated instruction, competency-based education and response to intervention.

It excludes universal design and blended learning, which sit in their own group. Teachers use these approaches to plan extra time, varied tasks and early support so that every learner can reach the same goals by different routes.
