  • Definitions and patterns of underachievement
  • Graphic organizers of ways different underachievers show up in our classroom

  5. William – TIPP CITY EXEMPTED VILLAGE (verified owner) –

    I think this course shed quite a bit of light on what gifted learners go through and what types of underachievers there are. Being a gifted underachiever myself allowed me to look at some of the creator’s analysis and really dig deeper into what that looks like in my own classroom.

  6. Leslie – GREGORY-PORTLAND ISD (verified owner) –

    The course was very informative.

  7. Judy – SWEENY ISD (verified owner) –

    I like the strategies she presented. I have seen several underachieving GT students. Many teachers don’t recognize it, and can’t understand why they are labeled GT.
