Description
Students are required to analyse a case study of a student with special gifts and/or talents and develop an evidence-based individual education adjustment plan. Evidence is required of the graduate’s reasoning for the overall plan, for the selection of teaching and learning approaches, strategies and resources, and for the activation of an appropriate support network within the school community.
