Description

All teachers can identify the underachievers in their classes, but did you know there are “hidden underachievers” waiting to be challenged? In this course Carolyn Coil identifies the characteristics of underachievers with an emphasis on this hidden group. You will learn the patterns and behaviors of students who don’t push themselves and strategies for challenging them to rise to their potential.

In this 6-hour course, you will learn:
  • Five different types of underachievers with emphasis on the “hidden” group
  • Definitions and patterns of underachievement
  • Graphic organizers of ways different underachievers show up in our classroom
  • Strategies – is there supposed to be more to this?

    It had great and useful information.

  3. Kevin – SOUTHWEST ISD (verified owner) –

    It was insightful.

  4. Laura – SCHERTZ-CIBOLO-U CITY ISD (verified owner) –

    Awesome! I have 3 GT children of my own. I wish I was able to understand the Underachiever GT student sooner. The course was filled with lots of helpful information that is useful in guiding the GT Underachiever.

  5. Claudia – LOS FRESNOS CISD (verified owner) –

    Very informative. Great eye opener!

  6. Claudia – PFLUGERVILLE ISD (verified owner) –

    I really enjoyed this course. It gave me much to think about personally and professionally.

  7. Kelly – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –

    This was the best GT course I have taken in a very long time. I learned so many things from Dr. Coil and had many “a-ha” moments. Everything that she discussed can be applied to my kindergarten students all the way up to college. That is a great workshop!

  8. Catherine – Private Pay (verified owner) –

    The course was well paced and interesting. My only issues were that the sound cut out at times when the video was still playing.

  9. Elizabeth – PROSPER ISD (verified owner) –

    This was a very interesting course with lots of great examples. It takes almost the full 6 hours but well worth it! One of the best trainings I have had in a while.

  10. Douglas – GRAND PRAIRIE ISD (verified owner) –

    Very insightful
