Essential features of curricula for mathematically talented students
The following is a list of several questions to ask when evaluating curricula and prorams for mathematically talented students:
QUESTIONS
Do the materials contain extensions that challenge the most able learners?
Are higher order thinking skills (analysis, synthesis, and evalation) essential to the lesson?
Are expectations high?
Is there a specific scope and sequence for mathematically talented students?
Do the curricular materials encourage students to ask questions and make generalizations that go beyond the original probelsm?
Is the material presented at a faster pace than in the typical classroom?
Are students given the opportunity to work with other mathematically talented students?
Can the content be tailored to students' individual needs, for example, are problems coded by difficulty level?
Do the materials contain opportuntiies for exploration and extension activities based on students' interests?
Do the materials contain a high level of sophistication of ideas?
