Dr. Michele Kane: Living with Intensity

CGCC Free Parenting Gifted Seminar

Living with Intensity:  Gifted children’s heightened sensitivities and intensities combine to provide qualitatively different interactions both in their inner and outer worlds. The asynchronous gifted children need the guidance of adults to help them develop and foster their social, emotional and spiritual nature. This talk will help:

• Identify strategies for nurturing the inner life.
• Understand the developmental experiences of gifted youngsters.
• Provide support for adults who help to guide these children.

Michele Kane, Ed.D. is Coordinator of the Master of Arts in Gifted Education Program at Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago. She has served the gifted community as a public school district gifted coordinator; through private programs such as Camp Summit for the Gifted, PG Retreat, and SENG; and in leadership positions within both the Illinois and National Association for Gifted Children. Inspired by her experience raising six gifted children, a major focus of Michele's work is related to parenting and social and emotional needs of the gifted.
