The Cognitive Map of a Master Teacher Conducting Discussions with Gifted Students.

Coleman, Laurence J.

Exceptionality: A Research Journal, v3 n1 p1-16 1992

The patterns of thought and behavior used by a teacher as he "created" a discussion with a group of gifted/talented children were examined. A cognitive map illustrates the techniques used to further the discussion. The teacher's use of professional practical knowledge (knowledge about teaching that was gained from experience) is emphasized. (JDD)
