Each year, thousands of gifted students go undiscovered in our classrooms. Without accurate identification, many of these students will never reach their full potential or benefit from the great resources available in our gifted programs. As teachers and educators in gifted education, one of our top priorities should be the screening, assessment, and identification of our gifted students.

    The course was great! I learned to look at the whole picture to identify a student (qualitative and quantative measures). Also, I learned to use a variety of activities to expand their thinking and develop their academic language.

    It seems to be a bit repetitive from the earlier courses so it may be better to advertise it as a review course.

    Very throughout but I would like to know more about Dual language, immersion and ELL students.
