Participants will contribute ideas to the discussion board, share their own experiences, and research related information. The objectives will be met through investigation of district information and practices and threaded discussions. A 10 question end-of-course knowledge test is also included. This course meets Texas state requirements for G/T basic training in assessing student needs or curriculum and instruction for gifted students.
