Towards A TALENT Model of Curriculum Delivery For Social Change
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Education reform in Nigeria has revolved around two main concerns. One concern is to deliver educational opportunities that will engineer social change and the other concern is to allow all students to develop their fullest potential and work toward the highest level of their abilities. In this paper, the TALENT approach is introduced as a model for delivering the curriculum for social change. The paper goes further to discuss six areas of practice in talent development which are subsumed under TALENT, as an acronym. These areas are Talent, Acceleration, Learning styles, Enrichment, Novelty, and Thinking, outlining six areas of practice in talent development. The paper concluded that while providing an orientation to the development of talents in all students, the TALENT approach can also be conceptualized as an integrated model of teaching strategies to promote quality education for all students.
