This is the most comprehensive and most practical book on this subject. It examines the total process of K-12 curriculum development, including planning, developing, implementing, and evaluating the curriculum with a strong emphasis on the district and classroom levels of planning. Each issue is translated into specific curriculum examples that are found at the conclusion of each chapter. And, because gifted children are more likely to be integrated into general education programs today, the book consistently focuses on gifted education in relationship to general education. Provides cutting-edge ideas for teaching language arts, sciences, social studies, and mathematics, plus a range of strategies in less traditional areas such as thinking skills and the arts and humanities. New to this edition is a chapter on learning and cognition, an expanded chapter on teaching strategies, content chapters that provide up-to-date issues related to general curriculum reform, and a new leadership chapter. Curriculum coordinators, teachers, and administrators in gifted education classrooms and schools. A Longwood Professional Book.

A gifted education Legacy Award winner, Best Practices in Gifted Education provides concise, up-to-date, research-based advice to educators, administrators, and parents of gifted and talented youth. The 29 practices included in this volume are the result of an extensive examination of educational research on what works with talented youth. The interest in culturally diverse and low-income learners, the means to identify talents, and the need for curriculum that appropriately challenges high-ability youth constitute just a few of the 29 practices. Each practice is organized into a chapter containing two sections: What We Know and What We Can Do. The first section briefly describes the practice and summarizes the research. The second section suggests what course of action a parent, teacher, or administrator might take at home, in the classroom, or at school. The book is a must-have for those who want a guide that makes a connection between research and practical action in gifted education. A service publication of the National Association for Gifted Children (Washington, DC). This designation indicates that this book has been jointly developed with NAGC and that this book passes the highest standards of scholarship, research, and practice.

Modern Curriculum for Gifted and Advanced Academic Students addresses the need for advanced curriculum design in an age of national standards and 21st-century learning innovations. The text and its authors work from the assumption that the most advanced learners need a qualitatively different design of learning experiences in order to develop their potential into outstanding achievement, answering the question, “How should we design learning experiences for our most advanced academic students in the foundational curriculum areas?” This book provides the most contemporary thinking about how to design in-depth courses of study in the foundational curriculum areas with a high degree of complexity and advanced content. The book includes chapters articulating specific design components like creative thinking, critical thinking, and authentic research, but also subject-specific chapters in mathematics, language arts, science, and social studies to demonstrate application of those design components.
