Creating effective learning systems

Submitted by Natalie Kulcsar (not verified) on March 31, 2008 - 07:03.

I find it very true that children must set personal learning goals. As a teacher for the gifted program for 1st-4th graders, many of my students blossom at the idea of taking the responsibility for their own learning. We do this through individual AND partner progects. The students choose the topic and I facilitate the process. Student choice is sometimes overlooked when it comes to the content areas. I find that children who set learning goals work more efficiently.
