Using a whole-school approach to teacher professional development and support for highly able students

Laura-Elena Runceanu has a PhD in Psychology and is affiliated with CCD. In this seminar, she will engage the participants in a discussion about how to implement a whole-school approach to teacher professional development and address the academic/educational and social-emotional needs of highly able students, including those who are twice- or multi-exceptional. Examples from educational practices will be also included. Currently, there is a growing interest in Sweden in the education of highly able students, although there are no agreed upon terminology, definitions, or models for identification and support recommended in the Swedish educational policies. The International Baccalaureate (IB) is mentioned in the specialist literature (e.g. VanTassel-Baska, 2023; Brody, 2023; Poelzer & Feldhusen, 1997) as an example of a program that meets the academic or educational needs of highly able students. However, there is a need to systematically support all highly able students, including those who are twice- or multi-exceptional, by offering in-service, evidence-informed professional learning development to teachers and support staff on how to address these unique needs, while consulting with the students and their families along the way.

Forskare som författare

Kan skrivande utanför de akademiska ramarna utveckla en forskares texter? Joel Berglund, doktorand i pedagogik vid HLK kommer att berätta om hur han använder sina erfarenheter av att skriva barnböcker, deckare och biografier i sin doktorsavhandling. Det bjuds även in till en diskussion kring hur man kan göra akademiska texter mer underhållande och läsvärda, samt hur skönlitteratur kan ge inspiration till forskningsprojekt.

Är skolan verkligen för alla?
