"This book presents a comprehensive, practical, evidence-based approach to transform teaching and learning to focus on the long-term aim of educating our future creative problem-solvers who will identify, develop, and apply their diverse gifts and talents in meaningful ways. Current research that shows even our best schools may not be preparing students for the challenges of the current global economy. The Global Education Reform Movement, with its emphases on standardization, accountability, and testing, has left many of our students disengaged, unmotivated, and underachieving. The most serious crises occur among poor and minority students with potential for high achievement but little opportunity to develop it. Schools need a comprehensive approach for motivating, engaging, and educating innovators across diverse student populations. This book presents such an approach through a new model called Talent-Targeted Teaching and Learning, a brain-based model for talent development which fosters students' content expertise, metacognition, and creative problem-solving. This model demonstrates how students can achieve the required curriculum content standards while they work toward long-range aims for talent development. Educators learn hands-on techniques to target, teach, and assess the cognitive and psychosocial aptitudes of students, such as creativity, insight, persistence, and logical reasoning. Talent-Targeted Teaching and Learning applies the psychology of motivation, engagement, and achievement to practical methods that educators can use to develop a curriculum focused on long-term aims for talent development"--

This book offers an overview of programmes designed to support the learning of gifted and talented students in STEM subjects, both to allow them to meet their potential and to encourage them to proceed towards careers in STEM areas. The chapters from a range of national contexts report on perspectives, approaches and projects in gifted education in STEM subjects. These contributions provide a picture of the state of research and practice in this area, both to inform further research and development, and to support classroom teachers in their day-to-day work. Chapters have been written with practitioners in mind, but include relevant scholarly citations to the literature. The book includes some contributions illustrating research and practice in specific STEM areas, and others which bridge across different STEM subjects. The volume also includes an introductory theoretical chapter exploring the implications for gifted learners of how 'STEM' is understood and organized within the school curriculums.
