Learners

"What Makes Someone Great?" is designed for use with academically and intellectually gifted and talented sixth grade students.

It was specifically created to be used with the Autonomous Learner Model, but may be modified to be used with other models of gifted education. It may also be modified for use with other groups of students at varying ages.

Learners will need basic Internet skills, note taking skills, and the ability to read diverse written materials. They will need to have some background experience in drawing conclusions based upon evidence.

In order to complete the lesson, students will need to know how to effectively speak to an appropriate audience and how to create a PowerPoint presentation.
