Description
As children move into adolescence, motivation to learn becomes more complex, especially for gifted students. In many cases, adolescent gifted learners may not have amassed the required strategies of self-regulation to manage complex curricula and projects. It is essential that teachers assist gifted adolescents in developing the skills of self-regulation, including planning, organizing, and meta-cognition. Self-regulation is critical in becoming an autonomous responsible learner. This session demonstrates how to infuse self-regulation strategies into everyday lessons and activities. Participants are also guided through a continuum of teaching and learning that can lead students to greater learning autonomy.
