ALDEA EDUCATION

The ALDEA Education workshops, courses, coaching and mentoring processes engage educators in understanding, analysing and evaluating research based approaches in the education of students with high potential, gifted students and curriculum differentiation in mixed ability classrooms.

Whether these experiences are designed specifically for a school or an educational system or are from a suite of course options, the ALDEA programs provide frameworks to develop differentiated pedagogical structures, promote teacher professional learning, leadership development and transformative leadership practice. These options also include team building, problem solving skills, critical and creative thinking skills and the use of innovative technologies.
