Gifted? by Morgan Whitfield

Gifted? The Shift to Enrichment, Challenge and Equity by Morgan Whitfield

Providing a comprehensive summary of the international picture of more able provision, this book aligns closely with the NACE philosophy. It focuses on "challenge for all" as an inclusive approach to teaching, whereby every student is invited and given the tools to reach mastery. Approaches include project-based learning, Harkness round-tables, oracy, adaptive teaching, inclusive enrichment programs, dynamic classroom strategies and a schoolwide mission for equity. The shift to enrichment, challenge and equity creates magnificent possibilities. 

 

Plus: hold the date for a NACE members' webinar with Morgan Whitfield on 12 Feb 2025...
