Becoming a detective: Searching for and identifying the gifted students at your school - (G&T Online Professional Learning Series)

This module is part of the Gifted and Talented Online Professional Learning Series. It can be completed as a stand-alone module or as part of the series. If you would like to register for the complete series please click HERE.

So many of our gifted students are hiding in classrooms, either underperforming, underachieving or opting out of schoolwork due to boredom, frustration or hidden disability.  This online workshop will explore how to identify gifted students in your school using characteristics, available data and off-level testing.  The aims of this workshop are:·

• To better understand the data you are currently collecting.·
• To improve your capacity to identify gifted students through their behaviours and characteristics; and·
• To learn more about alternative assessment options, including off-level testing.
