 * Topic:** Curriculum Differentiation for Gifted Students Using Creativity and Technology


 * Population:** This workshop targets educators that teach gifted students either in the regular classroom or in a resource setting.

The lesson plan will incorporate best practices using creativity and technology with gifted students.
 * Objectives:** The participant will demonstrate an understanding of how to differentiate the curriculum for gifted learners by creating lesson plans in each of the three areas of differentiation: content, process, and product.

The participants should finish the workshop with an understanding of how to differentiate the curriculum and differentiation does not happen all at once, it can begin small. For educators there is a loss somewhere between remembering how to differentiate and understanding and applying what is learned about differentiation. Educators have been told what to do, how to do it, but their understanding has not been checked.
 * Gap:** The participants know they should differentiate the curriculum for gifted students; however, information that has been presented on how to differentiate comes in massive amounts with no time to process and apply the information.
