SUMMARY:WCGTC Webinar: Gifted Education in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:(Times are in Central Time in the United States) Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping the landscape of education—and gifted education is no exception. From adaptive learning platforms to AI-assisted identification tools\, educators now have access to technologies that can personalize instruction\, uncover hidden talent\, and streamline program administration. Yet alongside these opportunities come critical questions about equity\, ethics\, and the role of human judgment in nurturing giftedness and talent. This webinar provides an accessible\, practice-focused overview of how AI is impacting gifted education today—and what lies ahead. We’ll explore real-world examples of AI-enhanced tools being used to differentiate instruction\, support creative problem-solving\, and manage student data in ways that free up time for deeper engagement. Attendees will gain insight into emerging trends\, including generative AI for student enrichment\, data-informed decision-making for identification\, and platforms that adapt content based on student ability and interest. Join us as we explore how AI can serve as both a tool and a topic in gifted education—supporting students not only in what they learn\, but in how they think\, create\, and lead in a changing world. 								\n				\n				\n				\n							\n					\n					\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n									\n					\n						\n									Members click here to register\n					\n					\n				\n								\n				\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n				\n									\n					\n						\n									Non-members click here to register\n					\n					\n				\n								\n				\n					\n		\n					\n		\n				\n				\n						\n				\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n					Tyler Clark				\n				\n				\n				\n									Tyler Clark\, Ed.D.\, is the Assistant Director of Operations at The Center for Gifted Studies and the Executive Administrator at the World Council for Gifted and Talented Children. Dr. Clark currently serves on the Leadership Development Committee for the National Association for Gifted Children. Dr. Clark is also active in the Kentucky Association for Gifted Education\, providing volunteer support including in the headquarters and during conferences and workshops. His research interests include topics in higher education\, specifically related to honors education; leadership; gifted education and talent development specifically policy\, creativity\, social-emotional aspects\, and underrepresentation issues; artificial intelligence\, and mathematics education. He presents at the state\, national\, and international level. He is a graduate of the first class of The Gatton Academy of Mathematics and Science and completed a B.S. and M.S. in mathematics and an Ed.D. in postsecondary leadership and gifted education from WKU and an M.S. in mathematics from the University of Central Florida. 								\n				\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n					Claire Hughes				\n				\n				\n				\n									Dr. Claire E. Hughes is Professor of Special\, Gifted\, and Twice-Exceptional Education at Cleveland State University. Previously\, she was Professor of Elementary and Special Education at the College of Coastal Georgia\, Faculty Director of Special Education Programmes at Canterbury Christ Church University in the UK\, and has been a Fulbright Scholar to Greece twice. Winner of the Gifted & Award from NAGC\, she is President of The Association of the Gifted for the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC-TAG). Her research areas include: twice-exceptional children- particularly gifted children with autism; Generational studies; the use of AI in education\, and international education. 								\n				\n					\n		\n				\n			\n						\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n					Michelle Ronksley-Pavia				\n				\n				\n				\n									Dr Michelle Ronksley-Pavia is Senior Lecturer in Special Education and Inclusive Education and Program Director for the Graduate Certificate in Special Education at Griffith University\, Australia. Her work stands out for its authentic centering of gifted students and twice-exceptional student voices and lived experiences\, aiming to transform understanding of diverse gifted learners through inclusive\, equity-focused approaches. She has consistently challenged conventional identification methods while providing essential prevalence data to support the work of educators\, families\, policymakers\, and researchers. As an elected Australian Delegate to the World Council for Gifted and Talented Children and founder of the annual Griffith University Gifted Education Symposium\, she actively contributes to advancing the field.Dr Ronksley-Pavia currently leads innovative research at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and gifted education. This forward-thinking work in AI is currently supported by two significant grants: the prestigious Esther Katz Rosen Fund Grant from the American Psychological Foundation (making her the first Australian researcher to receive this honour) and a significant Queensland Department of Education Horizon Grant. Through these projects\, she and her team are exploring how AI can be purposefully leveraged to enhance educational experiences for neurodiverse learners and gifted students.
