Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of oligodendrocyte differentiation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of gliogenesis, the formation of mature glia. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of an oligodendrocyte. An oligodendrocyte is a type of glial cell involved in myelinating the axons of neurons in the central nervous system. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of oligodendrocyte differentiation. The process whereby a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of a glial cell. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of glia cell differentiation. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of glia cell differentiation. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the central nervous system over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The central nervous system is the core nervous system that serves an integrating and coordinating function. In vertebrates it consists of the brain, spinal cord and spinal nerves. In those invertebrates with a central nervous system it typically consists of a brain, cerebral ganglia and a nerve cord.
