SBISD educators are participating in a GT Book Study by blog on A Love for Learning: Motivation and the Gifted Child by Carol Strip Whitney, Ph.D. with Gretchen Hirsch.
The first and final sessions are face-to-face meetings. After hosting a couple of these, we've found an initial face-to-face is highly beneficial in helping participants get acclimated to a blog environment. The middle 2 sessions are by blog. For every session, questions will be posted on this blog.
Requirements:
- Participants are to respond to all posted questions by commenting on them.
- Participants are to comment on at least 2 other people's responses for each session.
- Make sure you claim your responses! Don't post anonymously because you can't get credit that way!
- For this to be a rich professional development experience, you need to check the blog periodically. What have others said about your comments? What are your thoughts on theirs? Read comments and respond to them!
Schedule:
- Session 1 (f2f) responses done during the session on September 29, Chapters 1 – 2
- Session 2 responses due by October 20, Chapters 3 – 6
- Session 3 responses due by November 10, Chapters 7 – 11
- Session 4 (f2f) responses due before the December 1 meeting, Chapters 12 – 15
