Understanding the CogAT: What is this test actually testing?
Wednesday May 28, 2025 9:00am - 12:00pm MDT
TBA
Educators often believe the CogAT (Cognitive Abilities Test) is the "gifted test" in their districts.  But, did you know it can be used to understand all students through their ability to reason?  It's not an IQ test, but an "ability" test that produces valuable information for teachers, parents, and educators about a student's strengths and weaknesses in a way that achievement tests often don't capture. And, in Colorado, the state pays for all students to take this test twice during their school career. Come learn about what this test is, how it measures reasoning, and why it is useful in the education of all students in your district.

Unlocking Student Potential: Using CogAT Ability Data Alongside Achievement Data to Support All Learners
Wednesday May 28, 2025 1:00pm - 4:00pm MDT
TBA
In this session, educators will learn how to use CogAT ability data alongside achievement data to gain a more complete picture of each student’s learning profile. By leveraging this data, teachers can identify students’ strengths in areas such as complex problem-solving, critical thinking, and quantitative reasoning, while also addressing areas for growth. This approach helps inform instructional strategies, differentiation, and targeted teaching for learners with unique needs in the classroom. Join us for a hands-on workshop to explore practical ways to apply a strengths-based approach in the general education classroom to support all learners.  Teachers will want to bring recent CogAT class reports (please ask your school GT Coordinator), and a laptop to access student achievement data or other effective student information.
