“The Chautauqua movement<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://eric.ed.gov/?id=ED492771__;!!KGKeukY!ieLwEISwwwzoXxl8huXhuh4OVF8W5DSGAleUyRPJy15Dcn4qscnvzkoqt2q9VlIKZQAV$ > pioneered the idea of extending learning opportunities to adults and nontraditional students.”

The Belin-Blank Chautauqua<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://belinblank.education.uiowa.edu/educators/endorsement/default.aspx*chautauqua?utm_source=Wordpress&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=Chautauquablog6.21.21&utm_campaign=Promotion__;Iw!!KGKeukY!ieLwEISwwwzoXxl8huXhuh4OVF8W5DSGAleUyRPJy15Dcn4qscnvzkoqt2q9VpIoouW3$ > offers a choice of six classes in a fast-paced (accelerated) format.  The first two days of each Chautauqua class include time for participants to interact with each other and the instructor on Zoom. Each class continues online for three weeks of asynchronous opportunities designed by each instructor to maximize the value of each class.

During the Belin-Blank Chautauqua <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://belinblank.education.uiowa.edu/educators/endorsement/default.aspx*chautauqua__;Iw!!KGKeukY!ieLwEISwwwzoXxl8huXhuh4OVF8W5DSGAleUyRPJy15Dcn4qscnvzkoqt2q9Vv9cwK4r$ > (virtual in 2021), we are offering two new classes about meeting the needs of a broader range of gifted learners:

§  Talent Development: Arts, Academics, and Athletics (EDTL:4096:0WKB) focuses on the preparation required for gifted performers in the fields where these students stand out.
§  Serving Visual/Spatial Learners discusses ways to provide programming for students identified for advanced abilities beyond mathematical and English/Language Arts abilities. More than one educator has acknowledged the importance of identifying traditionally underserved students, but they are not sure what to DO for these students, since traditional programming will not match their strengths.

Family Issues and Giftedness (RCE:4119)
Jul 5, 6 – 23 (Psychology strand)
Dr. Haley Wikoff and Dr. Erin Lane, Team Teachers

Talent Development: Arts, Academics, Athletics (EDTL:4096:0WKB)
Jul 7, 8 – 27 (Programming)
Kathy Green, Instructor

Serving Visual/Spatial Learners (EDTL:4096:0WKC)
Jul 9, 10 – 29 (Programming)
Dr. Vince Moore, Instructor

Chautauqua Week 2 includes:

Automatic Scholarships

Scholarships for the full cost of one class are available to those who enroll in three classes in either week. Those who take all six classes over the two weeks receive a full scholarship for the cost of one class each week.  [Scholarship amounts are determined by the cost of graduate tuition; those enrolled as undergrads receive smaller scholarships.]

Registration

To take part in our classes, you must register one time each year with Distance and Online Education<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://distance.uiowa.edu/students/distance-and-online-nondegree__;!!KGKeukY!ieLwEISwwwzoXxl8huXhuh4OVF8W5DSGAleUyRPJy15Dcn4qscnvzkoqt2q9VsFeZiLU$ > as a non-degree seeking student.

For the State of Iowa Endorsement in Talented and Gifted Education, you may register as either a graduate or undergraduate student, regardless of your professional status.
