Retention of Gifted Preservice Teachers. A Sequel to "Supervising Sparkling Students" by Merrill Watrous, Techniques, January 2004
Butler, John; Watrous, Merrill
Techniques: Connecting Education and Careers, v80 n3 p47-51 Mar 2005
In this sequel to "Supervising Sparking Students" (Merrill Watrous, "Techniques," January 2004), the authors reflect on the two years they spent together as teaching co-op student and coordinator. The discussion focuses on three topics: (1) integrating technology into classroom teaching; (2) what one learns about gifted education from mentoring their own students; and (3) what can be done at the college level to improve teacher education programs for gifted pre-service teachers.
