Institute Description: This professional development experience is designed to provide classroom teachers, counselors, and special needs faculty with strategies that celebrate and honor diversity of all students from gifted to those students with attention, learning, or language issues. These strategies are purposefully designed to help students to become thinkers, creators, and achievers. They were developed from the latest research -based approaches including:
- John Medina---Current mind-brain research
- Howard Gardner---Multiple Intelligences
- Daniel Goleman---Emotional Intelligence
- Joseph Renzulli—School-wide Enrichment Model
The institute will run in mini-conference format that has both choice and whole group sessions built into its design.
