Using The Renzulli Learning System to Support The Schoolwide Enrichment Model
I've just completed a workshop strand on the Renzulli Learning System (RLS) which allows students to answer questions about their interests and learning styles and what they enjoying doing in school and at home. After they have answered these questions, the RLS creates a profile that describes the students. It explains their interests, beliefs about how they do in school, their learning style, which is how they learn best, and their product style, which is how they like to present the material t… Continue

Just wanted to tell you the updated Innovative Educator looks great. I am happy you added the links to your other sites such as wiki, etc.
Here's the Url for the T4 Grant we've received under Title IID.

The first cohort has just ended and our Special Ed teachers formed a collaborative learning community who learned specific tech tools, worked with their students and then shared their experiences with each other through the blog. Samples of teacher and student work are embedded in the blog. What a wonderful experience this was for all of us and we look forward to next year's new cohort of teachers and students. Enjoy.

I would like to add my thanks for creating this site. In the past three months, I've probably joined more social networks than I've been in all my life. When I joined Ning in February, for "Role of the Technical Coordinator," I found a long-lost NYC birding group I'd forgotten about! Now, yours is the third. Then there are all the Wikispaces groups I've recently joined and started. And other birding groups.....
I have to also add that the quality of your work is very high. Thanks again :)
It is great to know that something like this is available so I can talk to other professionals.
Thanks for the invitation to join in the fun!
