Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise, accessible guide explores the different models behind the concept of giftedness, examining the criteria for evaluating and identifying gifted children, in order to provide a deeper understanding of the lives of children and young people with high cognitive potential. It offers practical advice to parents and teachers, highlighting common queries and misconceptions and presenting evidence-based suggestions for management methods. Key topics covered include the difference between being gifted and talented, how to identify a gifted child, neurological differences between gifted children and their peers, dealing with perfectionism, and the best ways to parent and teach a gifted child. Avoiding prescriptive rules, the authors emphasise the importance of knowing and understanding the individual child whilst utilising research around giftedness to promote the best possible outcomes. Illustrated with case studies of student and teacher perspectives, the book offers an inclusive perspective and practical strategies, whereby the development of individual potential is viewed not only as a way to promote the psychological well-being of the individual but also as an opportunity and benefit for society. Understanding Giftedness is essential reading for parents and caregivers, as well as practitioners in clinical and educational psychology, counselling, mental health, nursing, child welfare, public healthcare and those in education who want to help young people develop their talents and achieve their full potential.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Applied Psychologist's Initiation to the Study of Gifted Children My interest in the subject matter of this book, the peer relations of gifted children, intensified enormously as result of my' involvement with one gifted child during my days as a school psychologist. At that time, I served a number of schools in a prosperous suburb. I spent most of my time working with children with behavioral and learning disorders. I received very few requests to assist gifted youngsters and their teachers, perhaps because, at that point, I was not very sensitive to their needs. One autumn I was involved in something from which I derived a great deal of satisfaction-helping the teachers of a very advanced retarded boy with Down's syndrome maintain himself in a regular first-grade class. In retrospect, the achievements of this student, Jeff, would have justified my calling him exceptionally bright, given the limits of his endowment. I was interrupted from my observation of Jeff's success in class by a phone call from another school, one to which I had not previously been summoned. I was asked to discuss the case of an intellectually gifted child who was bored, moody, difficult, and disliked by those around him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purpose. The purpose of this study was to determine if there are academic and self-esteem differences between high achieving students when some participate in gifted education and others do not. Procedure. A list of districts approved for state-assisted gifted programs was obtained from the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. School districts offering programs for gifted education which are located in North Central, Northeast and Northwest Missouri within 160 miles of Chillicothe and that began their gifted education programs at the second grade were identified. From the 14 school districts which met these criteria, twelve were selected that had maintained records of student referral and placement since the 1991-92 school year. The school districts had to incorporate special day classes with homogeneous grouping of the gifted students as the instructional setting. Two cohort groups of students were selected for the study. The first cohort group consisted of students referred for further screening and not placed in the gifted program or choosing not to participate. The second cohort group consisted of students referred for further screening and placed in the gifted program. To conduct this longitudinal study, academic achievement was monitored in reading and math through scores on the Missouri Mastery and Achievement Test during the two cohort groups of students' second, third, fourth, and fifth grade years. During the fifth grade year the Self-Esteem Index measuring self-esteem in Familial Acceptance, Academic Competence, Peer Popularity, and Personal Security was administered to both cohort groups. Results. The high achieving and talented group of students not participating in a program for gifted students (not-gifted) and students participating in gifted education (gifted) scored significantly above the state average on the reading and math sections of the MMAT. The gifted students had statistically significantly higher reading and math scores than the not-gifted students, as measured at the second, third, fourth and fifth grade levels on the MMAT. However, the achievement trends remained virtually identical for both groups over the four year period of time measured. The not-gifted students consistently had higher measures of self-esteem than the gifted students. The significance was at the p. $
