Discerning the Gift.

Weisberg, Mark

Change, v31 n3 p28-37 May-Jun 1999

The teacher of a law-school course in Legal Imagination discusses the evolution of his personal approach in the classroom, which is designed to discern the gifts of each student rather than to simply identify the gifted. Three crucial elements are explored: use and treatment of writing assignments; the use of silence in the classroom environment; and self-evaluation. (MSE)
