Use the information from your Circle Map to write a brief introduction of yourself to the group (either a short narrative or simply a few notes).
Without violating your privacy, try to include some novel information about you that others – even those who know you – are unlikely to know.
Then, one-by-one, each of us will introduce ourselves to our small group.

After one school year, students in 5 elementary and 3 middle school classrooms: displayed increased independence, responsibility and
self direction; made significant behavioral improvement, even
among students identified with behavioral disorders; Improved their ability to work cooperatively and to
communicate with others; and used a minimum of three to five intelligences in their
classroom work.

Some Direction from Background ResearchSome Direction from Background Research
Student success and self-confidence are reliant on teachers who promote opportunities for them to develop and then demonstrate their strengths rather than spending so much time remediating their weaknesses (Doubek & Cooper, 2007).
Student self-confidence and motivation are correlated with expectations from both school and home (Tavani, 2003).
Human action is reliant on self-confidence; self-confident people tend to have an elevated sense of emotional energy and imaginative capacity to shape the future in ways they would like (Ludema, Wilmot, & Srivastva, 1997).

Students who are self-confident receive higher grades than unhopeful ones, regardless of IQ scores (Scheier & Carver, 1993).
Self-confident students are able to tackle more difficult goals and tend to have success at achieving their goals (Olenchak, 2009).
Self-confident students have greater happiness and less distress as a rule when compared to their peers (Snyder & McCullough, 2000).

About ConfidenceAbout Confidence
Confidence is the expected probability that one can achieve a goal in a particular situation (Stevens, 2005); Bandura (1997) calls self-confidence “self-efficacy expectations.”
Confidence is primarily situational and not absolute (Bandura, 1997).
Confidence is rooted in mastering critical life skills (Austin & Vancouver, 1997; McClelland, 1988).

ImplementationImplementation
Teachers and their administrators were trained in both interventions.
Follow-up coaching to support implementation provided: In person every 6 weeks first school year As needed via e-mail and phone thereafter
Integrity of implementation assessed through teacher journals and lesson plans, as well as student journals and administrator observations: Some teachers implemented both interventions as
much as daily in both schools (18% Seattle, 7% Newark).
Some teachers never implemented (1% Seattle, 14% Newark).
Of the teachers implementing both interventions, at least once weekly (84% Seattle, 47% Newark), seven videos (4 Seattle, 3 Newark) were randomly filmed of classroom applications of interventions.

ConclusionsConclusions Interventions that equip students with life skills
are helpful in instilling developmental confidence. Talents Unlimited and Thinking Maps are
complimentary and can be readily integrated into content instruction in classrooms.
Students who are consistently asked to practice the two interventions are likely to express more confidence and as a result are likely to express otherwise hidden potential.

SAMPLE 1: REGULAR SECONDARY SCHOOL SCIENCE LESSON
(summarized from 8th-grade general science curriculum, Jefferson County Schools, AL)
Topic: 8th-grade Science: Stored Energy SourcesObjectives: 1. To develop understanding of how energy that has been stored (in the form of coal, oil, or gas) is converted to electrical power; 2. To have students understand that solar energy is the original source of virtually all energy; 3. To learn the way in which coal-stored energy is changed into electrical powerProcesses: 1. Review the water cycle and relationship to the sun; 2. Review relationship between the water cycle and hydroelectricity produced by a hydropower plant; 3. Using questions, establish that gas, coal, and oil have properties of stored energy that can be tapped to produce electricity; 4. Explain how and when coal was created; 5. Using the diagrams in the textbook, have students explain and discuss how coal is used to produce electrical power; 6. Have students outline the coal-to-electricity process as offered in the text.Conclusion: Discussions about the two kinds of turbines can be used to summarize the lesson, using the text as reference. Special attention can be made to the functions of turbines and how they are related to electrical generators.

SAMPLE AFFECTIVE ACTIVITIES AIMED AT POINT OF VIEW THAT WERE INTEGRATED WITH
THE ABOVE LESSON(summary of adaptations made by Advanced Programs Faculty,
Jefferson County Schools, AL)
Questioning: 1. What is the relationship between a coal strike and the ordinary person’s willingness or unwillingness to save energy? (point of view); 2 What is the significance of oil, gas, and coal to everyday life for most people? Support your position. (point of view; assertiveness); 3. What are the pros and cons of most the industrial world relying on oil and natural gas from only a few relatively non-industrial nations? How does this situation offer potential for learning from mistakes? (point of view; fear of failure)
Simulation: 1. Role play the differing parts in a scenario that students can create in small groups about reliance on coal, gas, and oil energy sources. Students can represent themselves, other people, nations, etc. (point of view; assertiveness); 2. Have students in small groups or individually design a society that relies in energy sources other than coal, oil, or gas. They should detail the energy sources the society uses and highlight their value systems pertaining to energy use, conservation, and development. (point of view; interpersonal communication); 3. Create a simulated debate about energy sources using point of view as a key concept. Students can serve in a courtroom or UN environment. (point of view; peer relationships)

Other Activity: 1. Have students seek out and collect examples from newspapers and magazines that illustrate some of our society’s values about energy. (point of view); 2. Have students contrast our energy values with those of either past societies or current societies other than those of Western origin. Have them defend their positions and explain how societies learn from errors. (point of view; assertiveness; fear of failure)

Topic: 9th-grade World History: Age of New World DiscoveryObjectives: 1. To refine previous understanding of the European
base for development of the Americas; 2. To learn about various European explorers, focusing specifically on those with impact on what is now Florida
Processes: 1. Discuss explorations of the Americas using the text and previous lessons as a foundation; 2. Review the contributions of various explorers to the sum total of the early development of the Americas (who did what and how it contributed to overall knowledge about the New World); 3. Explain how the early discoveries in North America frequently encompassed what is now Florida; 4. Discuss the victories and failures of Ponce de León, Pánfilo de Narvárez, Hernando de Soto, and Pedro Menéndez de Avilés; 5. Using the text as a reference, have students link world development of the era with early development of Florida.
Conclusion: Guide students toward summarization by discussing the early importance of Florida geographically. Focus on the role that Spanish exploration played in European interests in the Americas.

Step 1 - Analysis of Opportunities: In addition to being motivated by the desire to explore new lands, Ponce de León and other explorers were willing to undergo extreme hardship and many risks to attain personal glory and wealth. (motivation, risktaking, internal and external locus of control/rewards)
Step 2 - Locate Resources to Enhance Affective Opportunities: Kolbe, K. & Tate, D. (1987). It was worth it. In K. Kolbe & D. Tate, Risktaking. Phoenix, AZ: Resources for the Gifted.

Step 3 - Modification for Integration: Ponce de León explored the New World in search of wealth, personal glory, and the secret of eternal youth. He and his exploration team experienced extreme hardships. Pretend that you are Ponce de León before his death at age 61. Record a tape of him answering the following interview questions: a. Were you aware of the risks involved before you set sail on your explorations? b. What were the risks you imagined beforehand? How did they compare with the actual risks you encountered? c. How did you become mentally and physically prepared to achieve your goals? d. What was your attitude toward the risks before and after your explorations? e. How did others react to the goals you had set for yourself? How did their attitudes make you feel? How did you handle others? Now, recall some event in your own life which represents having to set a goal and trying to achieve it. Think about how you motivated yourself by responding to the same types of questions you posed to Ponce de León during your interview with him: a. What was the goal you identified for yourself? b. What risks did you imagine you would face in attempting to reach your goals? How did they compare with those you actually encountered? c. Were you aware of these risks before you embarked on attaining your goal? d. How did you prepare yourself for the mental and physical challenges associated with your goal? e. How did you feel about the risks before and after? f. What were the reactions of others to your goal? How did you handle their attitudes?
