Book excerpt: Educators and parents need practical information they can use now to help them best understand and support the gifted learners in their lives. Because of the unique social and emotional needs faced by gifted learners—not to mention the unique academic needs—teaching and parenting them can be as demanding as it is rewarding. These 36 articles provide much-needed help. They are a “best of” from the last seven years of the Gifted Education Communicator, the national publication of the California Association for the Gifted. With contributions from respected scholars as well as new experts in the field, this book is sensitive, positive, and packed with ideas and up-to-date facts.

This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2000. The education of gifted and talented children is attracting increased interest and attention in schools, LEAs and within government. A widely accepted critical aspect of talent development has until now remained under-represented: namely that the principal factors underpinning all learning are social and emotional ones. This book addresses the complex relationship between intellectual, social and emotional development that is necessary for high achievement and personal fulfilment. The contributors aim to provide relevant practical guidelines for secure and confident learning for pupils that will support teachers, parents and others wishing to help translate potential into performance.

GreenEDITORIAL EXCERPTHow must it feel to be highly intelligent, but unable to demonstrate that intelligence because of concomitant attributes that provide obstacles to optimum use of that intelligence? I can only imagine the frustration and even despair that children must feel in this circumstance. To know that you can easily figure things out in your mind and yet appear as less than able to classmates and adults has to grind down one's self confidence and eagerness to learn. We have focused on the topic of twice-exceptional learners (2e) several times in the past-those learners who are gifted, but have one or more learning deficits as well. However, because they are some of the least well understood and most underserved in our gifted population, it is imperative that we keep coming back with important and new information to help serve them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Emotionally, Socially, and Learning Disabled Gifted Children written by Hanna David and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the reader with the main inherent problems of double-exceptionality, namely, the difficulties educators and mental health professionals must deal with when working with gifted disabled children and youths. The first chapter describes ten of these problems; on the one hand, some have been caused by unfamiliarity of the basic terms and definitions of giftedness and on the other, learning or other disabilities; some by treatment failures of gifted disabled children and youths. The main part of the book, chapters 2-5, include six detailed case studies of gifted children and adolescents who were dealing, in some cases, with learning disabilities, but in all cases with social, emotional, psychological and familial issues that jeopardized not only their educational and professional future, but also their well-being and even their mental health. These chapters include also shorter vignettes of gifted disabled young and older children whom I have met in the last thirty years. Some of these cases-both the longer and the shorter case studies-are of students who had considered dropping out of school. This book challenges the assumption that dropping out is necessarily also an educational failure. Some of the cases described did not have a "happy ending": they describe young people who unsuccessfully tried to be "like everybody else," an attempt that has always been hard to live with. The last chapter shows that only when all components in the child's or adolescent's life, the family, the education system, and the social circle she or he belonged to encouraged and nurtured the child, materializing one's giftedness while maintaining a high level of well-being and social acceptability can be accomplished. The chapter of the book analyzes these factors while showing how misunderstanding of the child's needs, along with inability to provide her or him with the proper educational and psychological help might cause "giving up" one's giftedness, deterioration in the social/emotional situation or both.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exceptionally Gifted Children examines the origin, development and school histories of fifteen Australian children who are amongst the most intellectually gifted young people ever to be identified and studied. The first phase of a longitudinal research project which will trace the children through to adulthood, this book looks in detail at the children's early lives and influences, their families and personal characteristics. More importantly, this book explores the school experiences of the children, the opportunities offered and denied to them and the effects of their early school life on their educational development and how the school environment can affect: * self-esteem * self-concept * motivation * the capacity to find and form friendships * the children's own attitudes towards their abilities and achievements. This fascinating study will be of interest to education researchers, those working in special educational needs, and anyone with a particular interest in this field.

Download or read book Self-esteem of Learning Disabled Children in a Full-inclusion Model written by Jennifer Leslie and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to see how the full-inclusion model affects learning disabled students' self-esteem. Current literature states that there is a connection between learning disabilities and self-esteem, and that self-esteem is linked to academic and social achievement. I conducted a qualitative case study of the full-inclusion model in a fifth grade classroom. My study took place over a five week period. Through ethnographic techniques, I observed (in the classroom and lunchroom, as well as on the playground), interviewed (the general education , and resource room teacher), and held casual conversations (with teachers and students). With the data collected and transcribed, I was able to determine key components that make the full-inclusion model work, as well as how the model affects the self-esteem of the learning disabled children. Before observing, I defined what self-esteems means to me. I then created a tool to guide me when assessing the students' self-esteem. I found that all of the students made gains both academically and socially in this classroom since the beginning of the school year. However, I also found that the impact the model has on one's self-esteem is completely contingent upon the success of the model. I concluded that this model was successful. It was run by qualified and knowledgeable teachers who believed in the model, were dedicated to the growth of their students, and worked hard to make it work effectively. The teachers created opportunities for each students to succeed by creating equality through reduced stigmatization in fluid grouping, helping the students to form and improve relationship through group work, and by creating a predictable and welcoming environment, where individual differences could be appreciated and strengths could be acknowledged. Thus, this model proved to make a positive impact on the learning disabled students' self-esteem.

Download or read book To Be Gifted and Learning Disabled written by Susan M. Baum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-28 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Be Gifted and Learning Disabled is one of the most popular resources available on identifying and meeting the needs of twice-exceptional students. This updated third edition provides a comprehensive look at the complex world of students with remarkable gifts, talents, and interests, who simultaneously face learning, attention, or social challenges from LD, ADHD, ASD, and other disorders. Through case studies and years of research, the authors present a rationale for using a strength-based, talent-focused approach to meeting the needs of this special population. From a thorough description of twice-exceptionality and the unique learning patterns of these students, to strategies for identification, comprehensive programming, talent development, and instructional strategies, this book explores the distinguishing strengths (yellows) and complex challenges (blues) that these students face. In painting, green is a mix of yellows and blues. Because of their individual characteristics, twice-exceptional students come in a remarkable range of greens. 2018 NAGC Book of the Year Award Winner
