The World of Wonder (WOW) is a series of one week programs for gifted and talented youth. It begins with a family orientation on Sunday followed by classes Monday through Friday.

Students may choose to take one, two, or three classes, or they may spend the whole day with us by registering for our end-of-day recreation option. Recreation provides students with structured supervision after classes and allows families to pick them up after 5:00 p.m. Students who spend the day bring their own lunches.

Instructors

WOW faculty is comprised of a talented group of individuals from area pre-K-12 public and private schools, as well as from the Bradley University faculty. WOW student aides are an enthusiastic group of Bradley University students who choose to work with the program by helping students in between classes, assisting in their classrooms, and providing recreational activities.

History

Since 1983, the Bradley University Institute for Gifted and Talented Youth and its predecessor, the Peoria County Foreign Language Immersion Program, have offered summer educational program opportunities for Central Illinois youth. The Institute's summer program, World of Wonder (WOW), features a broad array of one-week courses, which enables first through eighth grade students to explore and expand their interests and abilities in a university environment.
