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.

In this 6-hour course, you will learn about:

  • 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!

    Please either lower the volume of the male narrator voice or raise the levels for Dr. Juntune. As it stands, I had to raise the volume to be able to hear the good doctor, and then my eardrums get blasted out when we get to a slide that’s narrated by the male voice. This has been true across all 6 of the courses I’ve been enrolled in.
