Description

Gifted students need gifted educational programs that meet their abilities and needs so that they can make continuous progress in school. They should be appropriately challenged in an academic environment that can help maximize their potential. In order to maximize the potential of the gifted learner, it is essential to improve the flexibility of schools, to diversify teaching methods and techniques, to enrich the content of the curriculum and to increase the qualifications of the teachers who work with gifted learners. This course aims to provide an in-depth perspective on the unique world of gifted students, preparing educators to recognize the learning differences and cognitive characteristics of gifted/talented learners and to design appropriate learning and performance indicators to support those students’ development.
