  17. Kristi – MIDLOTHIAN ISD (verified owner)

    I love how this focuses on different kids of giftedness. We are quick to find labels sometimes (GT, AP, Sped, lazy, etc.), but we forget that these can sometimes overlap and that we should be finding the true “giftedness” of every child.

  18. Ramiro – EL PASO ISD (verified owner)

    simple suggestions lead to big positive difference

    This was a helpful course in explaining some of the learning disabilities I have encountered in students but was not fully familiar with.

    This course is not only very helpful, but is necessary to educators to better understand children especially when the child has learning issues.

    This course focused a lot on the different disabilities that twice exceptional students often exhibit.
