G/T OnlineESC 13: Foundations of Gifted Education, Spring 2017

 In this e-course, participants will learn how we defined giftedness and served gifted students in the past, and how that past has shaped our present legal and conceptual understandings of giftedness. Participants will contribute ideas to the discussion board, share their own experiences, and research related information. The objectives will be met through Internet investigations, investigation of district information and practices, and threaded discussions. A 10-question end-of-course knowledge test is also included.   This workshop is aligned to the Texas State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC) teaching standards for Gifted Education, and the combined standards set forth by the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) and the National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC). The workshop partially fulfills Texas state requirements for administrator/counselor training relating to nature and needs of gifted learners and program options for gifted/talented students. This course is also appropriate for annual G/T 6-hour update.   Check your
