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.

  • Definitions and unique characteristics of giftedness
  • The role of intelligence in gifted students
  • Methods of screening students for signs of giftedness
  • Suggestions and guidelines for gifted programs
  • Scoring tests

And much more!

    awesome opportunity learning more about gifted and talented children

  2. CELIA – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –

    Very informative and easy to understand

  3. jennifer – CARROLL ISD (verified owner) –

    Most of the information does not pertain to me but is still somewhat interesting as an educator.

  4. Stephanie – SPRING ISD (verified owner) –

    The course was very informative.

  5. Roddy – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –

    I liked it.

  6. Michael – EDINBURG CISD (verified owner) –

    This is my second time I took this very long course all because I let it lapse. And nothing has changed. It makes no sense that it would be exactly the same. Several years have passed so much has changed but here I am seeing the exact same thing. I truthfully think this training is outdated and a waste of time.

  7. Timothy – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner) –

    I found this module interesting. It is important to understand that multiple instruments must be used to identify GT students.

  8. Larissa – Aldine ISD (verified owner) –

    I really learned a lot from this course. It’s easy to lose sight of people who may be gifted but “hide” behind insufficient social skills or language difficulties.

  9. Joshua – LONDON ISD (verified owner) –

    loved it thank you so much

  10. William – EDINBURG CISD (verified owner) –

    This course helps with understanding time and efforts required by gifted students.
