<h3>Family Issues and Giftedness<o:p></o:p></h3>
<p>Dr. Volker Thomas<br>
<span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">April 1</span>, 6:30 - 7:30PM (<a href="http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=798">Central Time Zone</a>)<br>
“Gifted children have gifted parents!” This statement implies the giftedness is embedded in family dynamics. This webinar will explore a) how family interactions are related to giftedness; b) give an overview of methods that explore these interactions; and
c) give suggestions how counselors and educators can effectively work with families of gifted children.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>This Webinar is scheduled from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. to facilitate the participation of parents (and grandparents), as well as school personnel. Registration is for the computer; we welcome multiple participants associated with one registered computer. As well,
parent organizations and schools/districts/Area Education Agencies are welcome to purchase and share the DVD.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p><a href="http://www2.education.uiowa.edu/belinblank/educators/Webinar/Academic_Credit.aspx">Academic credit</a>* is available.<o:p></o:p></p>
