Gifted and Advanced Academics Workshops for RESAs and Districts

Choose either all-day, in-person workshops or half-day, virtual workshops.

Elevating Student Potential: The Power of Talent Development: Join us for an engaging workshop that will equip educators with the knowledge/skills to develop their own talent development programs. We’ll explore the significance of talent development, its impact on educator effectiveness and student achievement, and the steps involved in creating a program that aligns with the Teacher Keys Effectiveness System (TKES). By the conclusion of the workshop, educators add to their toolkit the knowledge and skills to implement talent development programs that will foster students reaching their potentials.

Integrating Creativity into the Content Areas: Participants will learn instructional strategies with examples of how to integrate creativity into the main content areas. These strategies will support standards/inquiry-based teaching and learning and differentiated instruction for advanced learners and teachers. Participants will integrate creativity strategies into their own units/lessons with the assistance of an onsite facilitator.

Nuts and Bolts of Gifted Education and Advanced Academics: Join us for a thorough presentation designed to equip educators with a comprehensive understanding of the complex aspects of Gifted and Advanced Academics. By the end of this presentation, educators will be well prepared to enhance their gifted programs, ensuring that they effectively identify, support, and develop the talents of their gifted and advanced learners.
