Your product- how you will educate fellow teachers- the above list is just a guide- you may be as creative as you want.
- I will accept a paper IF you’re saying that you would submit this paper to an educator-focused journal- if so you need to tell me which journal and make sure you meet their requirements (Hint: Teaching for High Potential is a good starting place to look).
- Be sure to focus on both the IMPACT and the NEXT STEPS or TAKEAWAYS in some way. Meaning- don’t just say “here are ALL THE PROBLEMS (what a negative, deficit-focused view!) But you also don”t have to create the solution to poverty… What can individual do in their classrooms, communities, schools? Strategies, tips, etc for their gifted learners. It can focus on identification, services, anything- as long as it focuses on giftedness and poverty.
- Refer to the NAGC Gifted Programming Standards, Standard 1, Learning and Development (Links to an external site.) and Standard 4, Learning Environments. (Links to an external site.) Read more about the NAGC Standards here (Links to an external site.).
- Resources- in-text citations may not be possible, depending on your product choice- this is variable, but you SHOULD have a list of resources IN APA FORMAT submitted; it can be a separate document. FOR CHALLENGES, you should list class readings (this is not necessary on discussion boards). For a paper/website/presentation- “written” product, remember, that if you cite it in-text, it should be in your references (and vice-versa).
