Gifted students are a lot like snowflakes; no two students are alike. While one student might need very little encouragement to excel, motivating the next might feel like trying to wring sap from a tree with bare hands. There’s no sweeping answer to motivation, but there are prescriptive strategies that can help to encourage the gifted underachiever.

Description

When it comes to inspiring underachieving gifted students, a one-size-fits-all approach just won’t work. In this course, Lori Comallie-Caplan helps parents and teachers understand some of the root causes of underachievement. She offers suggestions on how to create a climate that fosters motivation, and then, how to sustain that motivation once students find it.

In this 1-hour course, you will learn:

  • Frequent reasons for a lack of motivation
  • Definitions of underachievement and selective achievement
  • How to recognize different types of underachievers
  • Specific recommendations for each type of underachiever

This course is aligned with 2016 ODE Teacher Competencies d, e, and NAGC Teacher Preparation Standards 1.1, 1.2, 2.1, and 5.5.

    Some of the information was useful. It was lecture style though.

  2. Eva – ECTOR COUNTY ISD (verified owner)

    It was great.

  3. Alissa – MCALLEN ISD (verified owner)

    The presenter was incredibly knowledgeable on the topic of underachievers, but there was WAY TOO MUCH information in this presentation.

  4. Kim – MIDWAY ISD – WOODWAY (verified owner)

    Lots of information, but a bit much to take everything in, and not overly interactive.
