Full Description


This unique text acknowledges and illuminates the reality that gifted students are from all backgrounds and that their talents transcend cultural, ethnic, and linguistic ties, handicapping condition, sexual orientation, poverty, and geography. In every possible sub-group of students there are those who are deserving of the benefits typically associated with gifted education programming. Special Populations in Gifted Education: Working with Diverse Gifted Learners reflects today's student demographics and serves as a valuable resource tool to educators and administrators who choose to promote access, equity, and excellence to the special students they serve. This text is further intended to provide a desperately needed update reflecting the modern view of who the "special populations" are in gifted education. Today's gifted students include a complex cross-section of students-from the gay/lesbian/bisexual student to the one who is dual-labeled, and from the biracial/bicultural to the indigenous. Topics include any combination of the following areas of interest: characteristics, curriculum, instruction, assessment and evaluation, nurturing, and meeting their social, emotional, academic, and cognitive needs.
