[quote=Anonymous]Facts: Accelerated is a basic term in education. It’s not a buzzword. It’s been around for decades. [b]From the National Association for Gifted Children: [/b] https://nagc.org/page/glossary [i]Acceleration A strategy of progressing through education at rates faster or ages younger than the norm. This can occur through grade skipping or subject acceleration (e.g., a fifth-grade student taking sixth-grade math).[/i] [b]Definition from a red state: [/b] https://www.fldoe.org/core/fileparse.php/7690/urlt/0070108-gift_accel.pdf [i]Acceleration refers to the practice of presenting curriculum content earlier or at a faster pace. There are many different ways to accelerate the curriculum. These op- tions offer the flexibility needed to help meet the individual needs of gifted students: • acceleration in one or more subject areas • grade skipping • Advanced Placement programs[/i] [/quote]
