About me

Introduction	I am an associate professor at the University of Great Falls where I teach course work in curriculum and instruction, gifted education, assessment and learning, educational research, and methods in social sciences. Additionally, I teach curriculum courses and thinking skills courses online and in the Three Summers Program at the University of Connecticut. Before joining the faculty at UGF, I worked as a research assistant for The National Research Center on the Gifted and Talented (NRC/GT). I have been a classroom teacher, enrichment specialist, and coordinator of a gifted education program in Montana. I am the co-author of, The Multiple Menu Model: A Practical Guide for Developing Differentiated Curriculum, and The Parallel Curriculum: A Design to Develop High Potential and Challenge High-Ability Students. I conduct workshops nationally and internationally for teachers in the areas of assessment, differentiated instruction, curriculum design and assessment, thinking skills, and program development. I serve on the boards of the National Association for Gifted Children and the Association for the Education of Gifted Underachieving Students (AEGUS).
