Renzulli Learning

Canon-McMillan has invested in Renzulli Learning, an Internet-based educational tool that provides fun, engaging, and meaningful activities that are tailored to meet your child’s individual interests and needs. Students will complete the Renzulli Profiler to uncover individual interests, learning styles and expression styles.  Then, based on your child’s Renzulli Profiler results and grade level, Renzulli Learning narrows down its database of more than 40,000 enrichment activities to the 1,500–3,000 enrichment activities that best match how your child learns. These activities will provide enrichment options for students to complete in the gifted support and regular education settings.

Asynchronous Development

This is a terrific article about the asynchronous development of gifted learners.  I love the comparison between gifted students and superheroes!
