Description
In reviewing the NCTM Standards, Deal and Wismer concluded that the standards do not adequately address the academic needs of gifted students. When using curriculum such as PBL, Stein, et al. found knowing how much students learn may be less important than knowing what and how they learn. This session highlights examples of student work reflective of the process of learning as well as what was actually learned. Recommendations for how to use/modify/develop curricula to meet the needs of gifted math learners in the heterogeneous classroom are shared.
No items are available for this session.
