Title: | Differentiation in mixed-grade classrooms | Contributor(s): | Cornish, Linley (author) | Publication Date: | 2009 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/6225 | Abstract: | 'Mixed-grade' and 'mixed-age' are broad terms for referring to classes with students who are not all the same or a very similar age. Within these two broad categories are specific types of mixed-grade class. Research carried out in one type -- non-graded classrooms -- consistently shows positive results for gifted and talented students. Results are strong in both cognitive and affective areas. In this article, differentiation in the types of mixed-grade class will be described, together with a brief summary of the research findings. The types of strategies used by mixed-grade teachers to differentiate (cater for diversity), including some examples, will also be briefly described. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | TalentEd, 26(1&2), p. 13-22 | Publisher: | University of New England, School of Education | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 0815-8150 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130202 Curriculum and Pedagogy Theory and Development 130399 Specialist Studies in Education not elsewhere classified 130313 Teacher Education and Professional Development of Educators |
