Description:

While the importance of social and emotional development of gifted youth is being increasingly recognized, it is still sometimes overlooked in the school setting.  Gifted learners should be provided with affective curriculum, differentiated guidance, and counseling services as needed to address their specialized needs that arise from their asynchronous development, over-excitabilities, perfectionism, and other characteristics associated with growing up gifted.  Dr. Amend will revisit the research on the social and emotional development of gifted youth and explore the benefits and barriers to implementation of appropriate services.  Discussion will focus on ways to improve affective services and strategies for attending to the social and emotional development of gifted individuals.

EILA credit will be available.
