Drs. Brock and Fernette Eide’s authors of a must read book for parents of ADD or LD children, The Mislabelled Child: How Understanding Your Child’s Unique Learning Style Can Open the Door to Success will be here in Vancouver Sunday to do a one day conference, How Giftedness Can Cause Learning Challenges. It’s sponsored by The Gifted Children’s Association of BC and Silbury Gifted School and Resource Center. The Eide’s will be speaking in the morning and I’ll be one of the panelists during the afternoon session.
The Eide’s are quite digitally active. They have 2 websites, neurolearning and The Mislabeled Child and a blog, Eide Neurolearning Blog. They’ve got a pretty interesting blog, one thing I’ll suggest they add tomorrow is blog categories and some labeling on their sidebar
They’ve blogged a lot about ADHD, 53 hits when searching their site, since they have no categories listed. Check out their post on Understanding the Two Executives in Your Brain. The chief operations officer (COO) and the chief creativity officer (CCO). Guess which role ADDers are better at?
