Biography Driven Instruction (BDI) is an instructional framework that guides teachers to maximize each learner’s linguistic, cognitive, and academic potential. This is achieved by capitalizing on individual’s biopsychosocial reality by helping teachers create a culturally and linguistically rich ecology. The BDI strategies provide a canvas for teachers to:

  • Reflect on standards of effective pedagogy
  • Promote linguistic and cognitive resiliencies through engagement and motivation
  • Understand and recognize students’ biographies to activate, connect, and affirm student learning
