The Routledge international companion to gifted education
Abstract
The Routledge international companion to gifted education is a ground-breaking collection of fully-referenced chapters written by many of the most highly-respected authorities on the subject from around the world. These 50 contributors include distinguished scholars who have produced many of the most significant advances to the field over the past few decades, alongside authorities who ask questions about the very concepts and terminology embodied in the field. This multi-faceted volume: highlights strategies to support giftedness in children, providing ideas that work and weeding out those that don't; is written in jargon-free language in an easy-to use themed format; is an authoritative collection of future-focused views, ideas and reflections, practices and evaluations; and includes chapters dealing with the major controversies and concerns in the field today, from the problems of identification to changing understandings of giftedness and creativity. The international aspect of the Companion, and its juxtaposition of points of view—whereby chapters are deliberately positioned and accompanied by editorial commentary to highlight the contrasts with each other—ensures that different views are addressed and allows the reader to absorb and reflect upon the many perspectives of each issue. The Companion is a guide to the new ideas and controversies that are informing gifted education discussion and policy-making around the world. It is a first class resource for students and researchers alike. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: cover)
