2024 IAGC Conference

We will explore assessments and instruction that encourage creativity and critical thinking that acknowledge linguistic proficiency and intellectual abilities. By embracing diverse linguistic backgrounds, we develop strategies that not only assess but also enhance comprehension and expression across languages. Through interactive instruction, such as project-based learning, (Nostalgia Project) digital/oral storytelling, Socratic Seminars, and collaborative projects, we aim to empower multilingual learners to excel academically while celebrating their linguistic diversity. This session emphasizes the importance of inclusive educational practices that nurture cultural competence in our gifted students. Underscoring the importance of inclusive practices that not only challenge but also inspire multilingual learners and gifted students, this session inspires educators to facilitate their students to achieve their full potential in education.
