Webinar Series
The Davidson Academy Online team periodically hosts webinars to share best practices in online learning. These webinars are open to educators and parents and are one of the ways that we give back to the larger community of online and gifted education. While our online practices have been honed over years of research and implementation, we believe that attendees will be able to learn something valuable, regardless of their comfort level with technology. Additionally, while our curriculum is specifically designed for profoundly gifted students, our pedagogical practices are effective with all learners and in all classrooms.
The following webinars took place in summer 2020. An upcoming webinar series will be available in the near future. Please see video clips from the webinar series below.
