Check out CTY’s
podcast about parenting and teaching bright kids
Get your earbuds ready—CTY’s Bright Now podcast is available on iTunes and other
podcast services. Hosted by CTY’s Jonathan Plucker, Bright Now explores
hot topics in parenting and educating bright kids. Plucker, CTY’s Julian C. Stanley Professor of
Talent Development, spends each episode exploring an aspect of giftedness with
a fellow expert in gifted education. Topics include screen time,
underachievement, twice-exceptional learners, and high schools designed to
challenge advanced students. “We’re excited about all
the positive feedback for the series, and we continue to receive great
suggestions for upcoming episodes,” Plucker said. New episodes, available this
spring, will explore creativity, social and emotional issues faced by gifted
students, and the college search process.
