G/T Online 6-Hour Update: A Nation Empowered: Implementing Various Types of Acceleration



The conversation about academic acceleration started with the Templeton National Report on Acceleration, "A Nation Deceived: How Schools Hold Back America’s Brightest Students," reflects what happens every day in our country’s classrooms. 

But the discussion of acceleration now continues with "A Nation Empowered: Evidence Trumps the Excuses Holding Back America's Brightest Students."

This online workshop will serve to help teachers and administrators explore the report to assist in better understanding gifted students and to contemplate solutions for better serving them.
