Features: Gifted education is not about cultivating prodigies or overwhelming children with a mountain of books; it is about providing children with a proper and superior educational environment. It allows children's potential to be maximized and realized. The concepts, stories, and methods advocated and described in this book offer excellent inspiration, valuable references, and timely assistance for implementing new curricula. Gifted education in the United States is student-centered, society-based, focused on cultivating abilities, human-oriented, with the goal of nurturing Learning-explorers (students), and concludes with "self-education."
