My master’s degree focused on creativity and education. I have formally and informally studied the creative process, various theories in creativity research, the role of systemizing and empathizing in creative works, common struggles among individuals with high potential, and twice-exceptionality. (My master's thesis focused on the role of literature while helping students who are gifted and talented gain self-awareness.) I also have extensive experience working with Davidson Young Scholars in the profoundly gifted population and with learners who identify as twice-exceptional.Homework Offered
Homework for this class is optional. However, ambitious students will walk away with several goals, exercises, and tasks for experimentation. I look forward to seeing the same students over a long period of time for enhanced social bonding, accountability, and creative learning.Assessments Offered
Informal assessment will be used throughout class time. Adjustments will be made based on the student's needs. These adjustments include decisions around goal-setting, instruction offered (based on research), and optional next steps. Most of all, I hope students feel comfortable, encouraged, and ready for risks (not necessarily assessed).Grades Offered
Students are encouraged to attend with some way to take notes (tablet, notebook, or whatever's their style). They are also encouraged to attend with knowledge concerning their daily schedule and any questions they may have during our check-in.
These activities are anchored by the Gifted Kids' Survival Guide, Gifted Kids' Workbook by Boorman, and information about Howard Gardner, Elaine Aaron, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Adam Grant, Daniel Pink, Angela Duckworth, Susan Daniels, and others.
