Advanced content knowledge focuses students on developing new learning & knowledge, as opposed to factual regeneration;
Concept learning develops student understanding of any discipline and the relationship among disciplines; and
Process-product facet promotes student opportunities for manipulating information at complex levels by employing generic and specific thinking models.

Students new to the Bloomington Public Schools will be assessed by program personnel for appropriate placement within the DA program’s math sequence.◦ quantitative measures (such as norm referenced standardized
tests, end-of-year grade level tests, problem solving assessments and prior course grade/completion
◦ qualitative measures (such as class discussion participation, daily work, individual conversations with the student, prior teacher recommendation and parent input)
Options are available, outside of the DA program, for math programming, enrichment and/or extensions.
