Let’s Take a 10 minute BREAK!. Form new table-groups, 4 people each. Team members please sit at different tables..

“The natural trajectory of giftedness is not ……. a six- figure salary, perfect happiness, and a guaranteed place in Who's Who. It is…… the deepening of the personality, the strengthening of one's value system, the creation of greater and greater challenges for oneself, and the development of broader avenues for expressing compassion.” —Dr. Linda K. Silverman Counseling the Gifted and Talented

GUIDING PRINCIPLES of Identification  Intelligence is multifaceted and manifested in many ways.  Instruments used should measure diverse abilities and talents.  Student identification should be based on culturally fair, valid, and reliable measures with recent norms..  No single instrument or score should be used to determine eligibility.  Assessment of students should continue over time.  A profile of each student’s strengths and areas of need should be developed and maintained.  A knowledgeable committee should review student assessments and determine eligibility.  Written procedures should include matters of consent, eligibility, retention, exit, and appeals.  Once a student has been identified as eligible, the services, not the status, may change to meet needs.

1. What constitutes quality evidence? 2. What are the best ways to obtain and analyze quality evidence? 3. Did this process help the MSC to make an informed decision? 4. What aspects of the process would you KEEP or IMPROVE? TASK # 2
