"Practical Curriculum Extension for Gifted Students"
Well designed extension material can offer qualitatively
different
learning experiences which address the unique abilities of gifted
students. By being available through the school network or on local
computers in every classroom, any time a student has demonstrated
mastery of the class work, the teacher can offer them the enrichment
material then and there. No student should ever be bored! By compacting
the class work, students find they can tune in and out of what is
happening in the classroom, thus maximizing their learning in the
given time. A flexible compaction/extension model enables schools
and home schools to implement a wide-ranging gifted program in a practical
format.
Lynne Kelly has worked with gifted students for over
