Authentic Learning
Participants will gain…
- An overview of what authentic learning is and why it is important for student learning;
- Specific strategies to choose from including project-based learning, problem-based learning, and case-based learning that can be implemented in the classroom
Gifted Students Will Not Be Alright, They Need You to Challenge Them
The thinking often is to focus most of the attention on the students who need the most help and that the high ability students will be fine on their own. Unfortunately, these students will not be fine. Their talents are being wasted, waiting for others to catch up, waiting to be engaged, waiting to be challenged.
Participants will learn…
- What not to do with gifted children
- Why gifted children need a specialized education
- 5 specific strategies that teachers can use to challenge students ranging from ones that have low to high impact on classroom practices
