Beskrivning

We live in a global society, wherein our dependence on our neighbors is growing more intensely each year. Technology, travel, and interdependent economic systems require that nations know more and share more of their natural resources. Among the most precious of these resources is the intellectual talent that resides in their countries. This edited volume sheds light on the unique challenges, trends, and intersecting issues related to identifying intellectual potential of children of color around the world, providing access to appropriate curriculum and instructional opportunities, addressing the professional capacities of teachers working with these students, and the role of diverse families and communities in the talent development process in these communities. To achieve the volume 'EUROs' objectives, the editors bring together expert scholars from around the world who have a vested interest in gifted children of color.

The contributors are education scholars who have a vested interest in gifted students of color and who are committed to improving educational and societal conditions for marginalized children of high potential and their families and communities. This volume fills a major void in the gifted education literature they say. Among the topics are gifted education programming: serving the native Peruvian, ramping up efforts for collaborating with Hispanic parents and families, talent in every community: a glimpse into the world of parenting gifted children of color, teaching to their strengths: good medicine for Native American education, the current state of gifted education in the Dominican Republic, and gifted children of color in the deep south.
