Doing poorly on purpose: Underachievement and the quest for dignity - Jim Delisle

Workshop door Dr. Jim Delisle tijdens de conferentie 'Bijzonder Begaafd' op 12 oktober 2017 in Nieuwegein, georganiseerd door het Informatiepunt Onderwijs & Talentontwikkeling (SLO):
'Doing poorly on purpose: Underachievement and the quest for dignity'
Most of the “antidotes” for reversing academic underachievement in able adolescents are punitive and disrespectful. It is no surprise, then, that they are also ineffective and emotionally debilitating. This session provides a new look at “underachievement” from the eye of the students who wear this label. A series of school-based suggestions and solutions will be offered, each one bearing a similar foundation: preserving the dignity of students who choose to perform poorly on purpose.
