It was simple and easy to understand but it provided good information to use with gifted students.

I liked the presenters because they were “real” with the audience. They do not expect perfection from their students because they are not perfect either.

Very good course, particularly the Literature Circles.

Lilia – MIDWAY ISD – WOODWAY (verified owner) –
I love this presentation. It gave me great ideas on how to differentiate and use depth & complexity. I teach Math so I particularly love the non-traditional problem solving strategy where GT students write or paste the word problems on the left side of their Math notebook and write how they solved it instead of writing the answer.
