Curriculum Planning and Instructional Design for Gifted Learners

This updated third edition of Curriculum Planning and Instructional Design for Gifted Learners: Is a guide to designing curriculum for the gifted at any level of learning and in any subject area. Addresses the need to differentiate at all levels in the design process. Shows how to customize curriculum for advanced learners. Uses national standards, such as the Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards, as the point of departure for design. Demonstrates how the differentiation process works in math, science, social studies, and English language arts. Special populations of gifted learners, such as those who are twice-exceptional, second language learners, students from poverty, and culturally diverse students, are included as a group for further differentiation and customization of curriculum and instruction. The book may also be used to provide a curriculum guide for teachers in a master's program in gifted education or those taking endorsement classes.
