Listening to Students about Learning Differences.
Cook-Sather, Alison
TEACHING Exceptional Children, v35 n4 p22-26 Mar-Apr 2003
This article discusses the value of students' perspectives on learning and learning differences, and shares the perspectives of high school students in a 7-year study. Students' responses fell into three categories: traditional definitions of learning and difference, tensions within the traditional definitions, and the belief that the world isn't tracked.
