Demystification was a practice originally reserved for students supported in special education used to empower students to be self-advocates. Join Dr. Erika Lucas for an enlightening session on how we can use this same practice with gifted students as we delve into the essence of giftedness, unraveling the intricacies that define the soul of the gifted learner.
