Universal screening is well-established as one of the best practices for gifted identification; however, the details associated with choosing an effective universal screener are more complicated. This session outlines components of an effective universal screening process that maximizes accuracy while also minimizing costs. Administrators are guided through tools to help them improve their universal screening process.

Learning Objectives:

Understand the benefits and limitations of one-phase versus two-phase identification systems.
Determine how to use universal screening assessments to minimize cost while maximizing alignment, sensitivity, and access.
Apply developed tools for reflection and evaluation of universal screening processes.
