Goals of instruction are identified, student masters all parts of instruction. Define these practices and list some pros and cons of these approaches: acceleration- advancing learners through levels of curriculum and programs according to individual achievement and performance. Pros: advancing grades in a single year cons: hard to form friendships with people that aren t your age: enrichment- extension of regular curriculum with different examples and associations that build complex ideas. Pros: gets more challenging work than other classmates cons: adds to their normal workload instead of replacing it: differentiation- instructional approach that assumes that students need many different avenues to reach their learning potential.
