Practice based

Dropouts and their surroundings often feel desperate. They feel like they have an inadequate skillset to manage the complex learning situation (of the youngsters). In this talk, based on qualitative research in the Netherlands and personal contacts with (the network of) gifted students/dropouts, Akke Tick (ECHA specialist in gifted education and change/communication specialist) and Sophie Louwersheimer (gifted working student in public administration and ambassador of the Erasmus School of Social and Behavioral Sciences) present a creative way of supporting these youngsters and empowering their network. Togetherness is a focus point. This talk includes current practices, and ideas for future improvement and change based on the Prosci/ADKAR model. You go home with food for thought, concrete action steps and inspiration on connecting with yourself, your network and (the network of) students/dropouts. It stimulates new traditions in working with gifted students/dropouts and their network.
