As for invites--I want the kids to know this is an adult site and they should be careful with whom they talk. You'll need to keep a good eye on them. Also, I think that the more mature students are better. If someone misbehaves, I'll have NO problems blocking them because the network is too important to let a kid muck it up with silliness.
Parents are very welcome--they sign up the exact same way that you did. Also, administrators, counselors, pre-service teachers, university professors, and eventually people in the business sector are welcome as well! I'd even like to see a few older students in here to give their take on g/t and general education experiences, both good and bad.
Until we begin to talk, learn, and problem-solve together, nothing will change for the students with the best potential to make sweeping, global solutions to the problems facing humankind.
Joyce--thank you for your kind words. Now it's time to get our parents and colleagues in here to talk all things gifted! The value of the network is in direct proportion to the amount of activity contributed by each member! ;-)
I love Gifted Education 2.0! This is the link that gifted educators have a vast need for. Hurray to Ginger Lewman for being the genius behind this great network and to all of those hard working gifted educators who contribute. Way to go!
Hey! Remember me from a few of the Emporia classes we took together? I always enjoyed reading your comments on different forum posts. I have sent you a friend request in hopes of being able to continue to see what innovative ideas you have.
Hello Joyce, and welcome to GE2.0! There are many Kansans on here, so feel free to listen in, or join in, on any of the conversations you see!
And, as always, let me know if you have any questions or concerns!
