Differentiating Cooperative Learning to Meet the Needs of Gifted Learners: A Case for Transformational Leadership.
Ross, John A.; Smyth, Elizabeth
Journal for the Education of the Gifted, v19 n1 p63-82 Fall 1995
Observations of interactions of mixed-ability groups revealed three persistent challenges (inclusiveness, enacting the ideal, and monitoring growth) in which gifted students can develop and exercise leadership skills. Specific student strategies are proposed for each challenge. The role of teachers in developing leadership skills of gifted learners is also addressed. (Author/DB)
