The Education of Special Populations of Gifted Students module provides an overview of the challenges and issues that face diverse populations of gifted students as they struggle to gain acceptance, recognition, and access to appropriate gifted education to meet their individual needs.
This online course is one of the five courses required for Gifted Endorsement. Participants will spend approximately 6-8 hours per week on course work.
An email will be sent to each participant with login information and directions for accessing the course through Moodle, NEFEC's course management system, by 4:30 PM on the start date of the course. Please check your Spam folder if you have not received login by that time. If you do not find it, contact elearning@nefec.org to verify your email and to have the information resent.
Limited copies of the required text for this course (Diverse Populations of Gifted Children: Meeting Their Needs in the Regular Classroom and Beyond) can be checked out to participants through FDLRS NEFEC. For more information, contact Cindy Lanzer at lanzerc@nefec.org prior to the beginning of the course.
NEFEC's courses are for in-service points and are not college level courses. The Florida Department of Education will not accept NEFEC's courses if they are submitted by an individual for recertification or endorsement. They must be submitted through a district as part of their approved Master In-service Plan.
Participants are responsible for following their district’s requirements to obtain in-service credit and endorsement. If you are unsure if your district will accept courses offered through NEFEC, you will need to check with your district Staffing Development office.
FLDOE Note Regarding Endorsements: Per section 1012.575, F.S., only school districts have statutory authority to have state approved add-on endorsement programs whereby teachers can complete the endorsement requirements via in-service points. All other (including non-public) school teachers can add an endorsement to their certificate, but only through the college credit route. Private school teachers may take the "endorsement" courses offered for in-service points, but they won't be able to use them to add the endorsement to their certificate.
