Aside from the thread on gender and learning -- which I'm steering clear of --
what about learning wrt age ranges?  Are there any generally-accepted,
broadbased guidelines for learning approaches best suited for different ages?
this could mean lesson length; scope; things to avoid; balancing lecture vs.
lab, team vs. self activity, handson vs non-, etc.; competition vs. self-

Currently, I have the opportunity to conduct some casual (meaning non-
permanent, based on prior association with faculty and school) lesson plans at
3 local Montessori schools.  We're also working with an established community
service organization to develope a resource for their in-school youth
programs.  Target topics include leadership and teambuilding skills, science
basics, a rudimentary exposure to business to name a few -- all mixed with
some friendly competition and the fun of LEGObuilding.  In all, the range of
kids is from 4 years to highschool.
