Explain how Concept Development goes beyond
Concept Attainment.
- Concept Development goes beyond the definition to inferences that cannot be observed.
- Concept development refines and extends our knowledge through providing an opportunity to refine our personal concepts.

The concept development model starts by
having students list as many objects, ideas, memories, etc. related to the
desired subject. The students then group the items by how they are alike.
Students will then label these groups and state why they decided to label the
groups the way they did. Next, students will look at the lists and groups again
and see if they can find additional items or groups they can create. Lastly,
students will make a generalization about the subject
Identify ways that you can differentiate within
the model, as well as ways you can assess it. (This model can serve as a great
pre- or formative assessment (see the Evaluation section on page 115). Either
way, step 5 (summarize and generalize) will probably be the step you want to align
to your indicator.
- Interest can be used by allowing students to generate data sets
- Readiness can be used by dividing students into group and varying information
