This session provides a strategic, organized method to design and implement G.R.I.P. (Gifted Research Interest-based Projects) with students. This open-ended approach to learning utilizes the Talents Unlimited Model to foster creative thinking. Participants are guided through an interactive model incorporating 21st century skills including: problem solving, creativity, managing time and resources, communication skills, self-direction, real-world impact, and technology. Establishing these skills provides gifted students with the knowledge and confidence to master the multi-dimensional abilities required of them in the future!
