Program Development for the Gifted
EDUC-40100
This course explores various program models for educating gifted students. As participants study major issues and factors affecting program development (philosophical views, general attitudes, parent involvement, funding, grouping, teacher training, collaborative efforts among programs, and parent education), they will be encouraged to share program materials from their own or their children's school districts to review current practices. Class members will be furnished with such materials and receive guidance in developing a gifted program based on an assessment of student needs and pertinent district or school factors.
