SUMMARY:Torrance Center Summer Institute for Teachers and Practitioners
DESCRIPTION:Join us virtually\, June 8-11\, 2021\, as we explore the principles of creative thinking as a framework for curriculum development\, classroom teaching and assessment. Designed around research-based strategies for integrating creativity into the classroom\, the four day training will take place via Zoom and will revolve around the three key strands of the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking-Figural\, Equity-based & Culturally Responsive Practices in Gifted Education\, and Using Creative Strategies for Standards Based Classrooms. Educators will leave with practical creative strategies for enhancing their overall classroom instruction. \nMorning Strand 8am-Noon (Optional): \nTorrance Tests of Creative Thinking Training This training will focus on the administration\, scoring\, interpretation\, and scorer certification for the TTCT-Figural. Follow-up scoring after the workshop has concluded is required for reliability certification.  Facilitated by Dr. Sarah Sumners\, Associate Research Scientist for the Torrance Center \nAfternoon Strands 1pm-4pm (Choose 1): \nUsing Creative Strategies for Standards Based Classrooms: Elevating and Engaging Student Learning Training students to be creative problem solvers through in classroom will allow them to use the tools for creative thinking and problem solving while they meet and expand the standards that are required. Using individual and small group tasks\, participants will engage in creativity strategy via content disciplines. Facilitated by Dr. Meg Hines\, Senior Lecturer\, EPSY Gifted and Creative Education Program \nDiversity\, Equity\, and Creativity Building on the scholarship and work of Dr. Mary Frasier and Dr. E. Paul Torrance\, this strand will focus on the role of creativity and advocacy in working with students from diverse backgrounds. Participants will learn to use tools such as Frasier’s Traits\, Aptitudes and Behaviors (TABs) referral instrument and Torrance’s Creative Positives for working with students from underrepresented populations. Facilitated by Dr. Tarek Grantham\, Professor\, EPSY Gifted and Creative Education Program\, Annessia Bullard\, Ph.D. Student\, EPSY\, and Thelron Pleas\, Ph.D. Student\, EPSY \nRegister NOW:  \nhttps://estore.uga.edu/C27063_ustores/web/store_main.jsp?STOREID=158&SINGLESTORE=true

SUMMARY:Explorathon 2020 More Than 1+1: Supporting Highly Able Maths Minds In The Classroom
DESCRIPTION:The Scottish Network for Able Pupils and the TILE Network are delighted to host a webinar as part of the European Researcher’s Night. Bringing together experts from Scotland\, Sweden and Germany we will explore how we can support highly able mathematicians in our classrooms. This webinar will be of interest to teachers\, student teachers\, policy makers\, parents\, authority personnel and all who have an interest in mathematics. \nWe will use the hashtag #HighlyAbleMathsMinds for this event. \n  \nWebinar Schedule: \n\n4.00-4.15pm: Introduction | Margaret Sutherland\, SNAP\, University of Glasgow\, UK\n4.15-4.30pm: How To Foster Mathematically Gifted Students In Times Of Corona | Prof Marianna Nolte\, University of Hamburg\, Germany\n4.30-4.45pm: Supporting Mathematically Highly Able Students in Sweden | Dr Elisabet Mellroth\, Karlstad Municipality\, Sweden\n4.45-5.00pm: Dr Andrew Wilson\, University of Glasgow\, UK\n5.00-5.30pm: Questions and Answers\n\n  \nTalks: \nHow To Foster Mathematically Gifted Students In Times Of Corona | Prof Dr Marianne Nolte \nAt the University of Hamburg we work with mathematically gifted students starting with third graders up to 9th graders. The students get one problem which is complex and challenging. But\, no more than the usual acquired knowledge is necessary to work on the problem. One session takes 90 minutes. Since midst of March we stopped presence sessions. We offered correspondence circles and have since August switched to digital sessions. In this talk I will present our observations and give a short impression about the reactions of students and parents. \n  \nSupporting Mathematically Highly Able Students In Sweden | Dr Elisabet Mellroth \nIt has been a tradition in Sweden for very long to focus on helping each student reach the passing level in school\, little if any focus has been given to those who learn with ease\, that is the highly able students. The consequences have been that children who learn mathematics easily often has been forced to redo mathematics over and over again or being offered next level without any chances of getting grades. For the student this causes a lot of frustration and in the worst cases self-destructive behavior and/or dropping out from school. When students with high ability in mathematics are offered structured support with a long-term plan and when they are given opportunities to work with likeminded it means a lot for their knowledge development as well for their social development. In 2015 the Swedish National agency of education released a support material for teaching highly able students. Since than some municipalities have started to work on developing strategies of how to meet their highly able students. In my talk I will give examples of the newly released strategy plan from Stockholm City\, the largest municipality in Sweden. \n  \nJust Harder Sums? Challenges In Conceptions Of The Mathematical Sciences And Transitions To University-Level Studies | Dr Andrew Wilson \nAt a time of global change\, mathematical sciences occupy an increasingly central role – both overtly and covertly – in shaping and guiding our lives. They are social\, creative\, living and breathing subjects from which all of society benefits\, oftentimes inadvertently. However\, this understanding is frequently absent in students as they transition into Higher Education. This presentation will share insights on the common challenges we encounter\, together with an initiative designed to connect children and young people with this realisation. In our transdisciplinary photo competition\, we provide a framework to identify\, consider and celebrate the maths surrounding us: the maths inside. Fostering curiosity\, creativity\, and creating opportunity for participants to embark on a journey of discovery towards making deeper mathematical connections\, this project is especially well matched to the needs of those with highly able minds.

SUMMARY:ANDESICREAT-PERÚ Online Conference
DESCRIPTION:Primera conferencia jueves 15 de octubre 6:00 pm\nTema: “Apoyemos al Estudiante Doblemente Excepcional”\nPonente: Dra. Rossina M. Gallagher\, PhD\, NCSP    (U.S.A.)\nPsychologest and Educational Consultant Multilingual Service; SENG – Supporting  Emotional Needs of the  Gifted \nChicago – ILLINOIS – Estados Unidos de Norte América U.S.A.\nMiembro del World Council for Gifted and Talented Children  (WCGTC)   Es miembro de la Asociación de Illinois  para Niños  con Sobredotación Intelectual (IAGC).  Por favor en la parte inferior  final está su Curriculum\, en el archivo adjunto.\n\nEl Tema Apoyemos  al Estudiante Doblemente Excepcional.\nEn esta conferencia se abordará a quien se le denomina un Niño 2E\,  aquel que además de ser considerado Superdotado en comparación de sus compañeros de la misma edad\, es diagnosticado formalmente con una o más discapacidades. Aunque 2E  puede referirse a cualquier discapacidad en general a menudo se usa para referirse a estudiantes con discapacidad en el aprendizaje\, aunque la investigación no se limita  a estas áreas  y una visión más  holística de 2E  puede ayudar a avanzar en este campo. \nSegunda Conferencia  jueves 7 p.m.\nTema: “Creatividad y Talento: Potenciando las Habilidades de los Niños”\nPonente: Psicóloga  Bertha Figueroa Chávez\nPsicóloga clínica y de la salud  titulada por la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos \nEx alumna del Programa de Atención Educativa Para Niños con Facultades Talentosas Sobresalientes. (P.A.E.N.F.T.S.).\n \nEn este Tema\, Creatividad y Talento: Potenciando las habilidades de los Niños\, la  Conferenciante  nos afirmara que \nTodos los niños tienen diferentes gustos e intereses\, así como distintas habilidades\, talentos y formas de demostrar su inteligencia. Uno de los principales componentes para desarrollar los talentos y altas capacidades es la creatividad. La creatividad en los primeros años de vida se  hace notar en  los infinitos juegos\, dibujos y capacidad para crear de los niños\, conforme pasa el tiempo podemos estimularla y lograr que alcance su máximo potencial o ir apagándola hasta que solo aflore bajo necesidad real. Orientando debidamente nuestros roles como  profesionales\, psicólogos\, educadores y padres\, creando y desarrollando ambientes propicios para estimular y potenciar las capacidades de los niños e  instaurar hábitos favorables para un óptimo desarrollo de las capacidades cognitivas\, creativas y talentos en beneficio de la comunidad. \nTercera conferencia  viernes 16 de octubre  6:00pm .\nTema: “PERCEPCIÓN DE VOCACIONES CIENTÍFICAS EN LOS NIÑOS TALENTOSOS”.\n  \nPonente: Dr. Modesto Montoya Zavaleta.\nDoctor en Física Nuclear  y Física de Partículas de la Universidad de Peris Sud Francia.\nDoctor Honoris Causa de varias Universidades.\nProfesor Principal de Ciencias de la Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería (UNI) \nEx Presidente del Instituto Peruano de Energía Nuclear  (IPEN).\nFundador del Centro de Preparación para la Ciencia y Tecnología (CEPRECYT).\n \nEn esta exposición se abordara un tema muy importante\, y todos estarán de acuerdo en que los niños nacen con  muchas de las capacidades propias de un buen científico. Es decir su habilidad innata para observar\, curiosidad y capacidad instintiva para el aprendizaje empírico hacen que se desarrollen sus habilidades exploratorias y de experimentación necesarias para elaborar\, hipótesis que les permiten  comprender el mundo que los rodea\, además  y por lo general las materias de ciencias apasionan a los niños\, por eso encontramos ejemplos que muestran mucho interés por temas como  los volcanes\,  el espacio\, los dinosaurios\, los robots\, los animales salvajes o las fosas submarinas y  de la misma manera suelen sentirse bastante atraídos ante la posibilidad de llevar acabo experimentos científicos. \nPartiendo de la premisa de que los niños son “pequeños científicos” resulta mucho más efectivo concentrarnos en encontrar la manera de recoger y nutrir esa naturaleza investigadora e innata desde edades tempranas\, promoviendo el entorno educativo adecuado que permita seguir alimentando el afán de conocimiento innato de los niños de manera que afloren espontáneamente  las auténticas vocaciones científicas. \nCuarta conferencia – viernes 16 – 7.00 p.m.\nTema: “Planeta Corazón: Lideres\, Emprendedores\,  y Talentos para el Futuro de la Humanidad” .\nPonente: Kabir Pajares Garcés  (17 años)\nEscritor y conferencista\, creador del método L3C “Lee\, Comprende\, Crea y Comparte” \nEx alumno del Programa de Atención Educativa Para Niños con Facultades Talentosas Sobresalientes  (P.A.E.N.F.T.S .).\n\nJustamente el presente ciclo de conferencias combina\, ejemplos de niños que detectados y atendidos oportunamente alcanzan a desarrollar su inteligencia\, creatividad y talentos\, esta es la nueva generación llamada a participar de una acción global desde el sistema de las Naciones Unidas y una sociedad civil comprometida.\nParticipando de esta conferencia podremos recrearnos y aprender con un estilo único en el que se conjugan la música\, el canto y las capacidades comunicativas\, con las que se viene logrando motivar la toma de conciencia de los graves problemas\, con propuestas de solución\, expresadas en proyectos y dirigidas desde la asociación Planeta Corazón.

SUMMARY:2020 Virtual Twice-Exceptional Students Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Day 1: Wednesday\, September 23\n\n\n\n\nTwice-Exceptional Students: An Introduction – Who Are They? What Do They Need?\n\n\n\n\n\nThere is increased understanding about the importance of creativity in education for both the individual and society as a whole. In order to nurture creativity in the classroom\, educators must approach education from a strength-based perspective. This is especially beneficial for gifted students who also have learning and/or behavioral differences. In this workshop we will examine the research on twice-exceptionality and explore the practical implications of these findings as educators work to build creative classroom environments that highlights the motivation\, strengths\, perseverance\, and resilience of this gifted population while also addressing the challenges that they have as a result of their individual disabilities. \n\n\n\nDay 2: Thursday\, September 24\n\n\n\n\nAddressing the Social-Emotional Needs of Twice-Exceptional Students\n\n\n\n\n\nStudents who are twice exceptional possess a variety of strengths while also facing challenges related to being Gifted &. While a great deal of focus has been on their academic strengths and challenges\, they have unique social-emotional needs that must also be recognized and addressed within the educational setting. This workshop will focus on the understanding of the unique social and emotional needs of twice-exceptional students. Participants will explore characteristics of this gifted population and their needs\, developmental traits\, and vulnerabilities. Additionally\, an introduction to current educational approaches and guidance will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Back To School: What Did We Do? What Did We Learn?
DESCRIPTION:About this Event\n\n\nThis webinar is jointly organised by the School of Education and the TILE Network at the University of Glasgow. The free event is particularly aimed at primary and secondary teachers and those in management positions within schools as well as education authority representatives. However\, everyone interested in the topic is welcome to attend. \nAbstract:   \nAs schools across the world are returning to classrooms thoughts are turning to the many practical issues that need to be addressed to ensure safety\, health and well-being and appropriate curriculum opportunities. Some countries already back in school and there is much we can learn from staff in these countries. This webinar will draw on the experiences of three teachers from Scotland who are now working in Hong Kong and Beijing. They all have practical experiences to share that will help you to plan and think through the issues as you prepare to welcome learners back to your classrooms. \nWe will use the hashtag #BackToSchoolCPD for this event.
