Description
Graduate student life in gifted education is very rewarding, but can be challenging. Deciding upon a school, graduate program, and supervisor, and successfully presenting research through conferences, and academic writing are examples of the topics that are discussed. First-hand accounts provide valuable opportunities to develop as an emerging professional. Objectives of the session include learning from the advice and tips provided by graduate students and having an opportunity to ask questions to students who have insights based on personal experiences. The session audience is open to everyone, but is of particular interest to graduate students in gifted education.
No items are available for this session.
