After applying a priori search and inclusion protocols, a final sample (N = 202) of articles examining Black and Brown students in gifted education were retained. The trends in gifted education research centered on Black and Brown students can be placed into three broad categories: (a) representation, (b) methodology, and (c) focus on National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC) standards. The researchers provide implications for equitable gifted education praxis, which include filling the gaps in research on Black and Brown gifted students and methodological considerations.","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"101 - 114"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41921146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This lack of research leaves unexamined the amelioration efforts of leaders positionally responsible for these programs: gifted education coordinators. Yet, many gifted coordinators have taken steps to address underrepresentation. This article, the outcome of a narrative inquiry, presents the perceptions and work of three Virginia gifted coordinators whose years in service coincided with years in which racial representation improved in their respective programs. Findings illustrate the demands of gifted education oversight including the fight to legitimate their department in the eyes of other district leaders, a barrier complicit in underrepresentation. This revelation highlights the need for systemic reform including training for all educational leaders.","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"115 - 127"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41357366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were 152 children aged 4 to 6 years at the time of drawing. After 2 years, 85 had received regular curriculum (the typically developing group) and 67 had received enriched curriculum (the potentially gifted group). Analyses of item categories suggested that HFDs can serve as a screener for giftedness for 4- and 5-year-olds, but not for 6-year-olds. For 4- and 5-year-olds, the presence of items that indicated what is drawn or indicated deliberate abnormalities in shape and size predicted the likelihood of being in the potentially gifted group. No such predictive relation was found for items that indicated how good drawings look.","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"128 - 139"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48959556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each paradigm has elucidated different aspects of human nature and functioning, and each has somewhat different implications for how we can understand giftedness. No one paradigm can provide complete understanding of giftedness. Rather, the paradigms should be viewed as different windows toward understanding giftedness, all of which together tell us much more than any individual one. It is regrettable that so many theorists and practitioners have locked themselves into an operationist paradigm, which simply accepts current measurement operations as sufficient for identifying and developing giftedness. The operationist paradigm is wholly insufficient to meet the challenges of the world of the 21st century.","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"84 - 100"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47606533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This becomes an issue among gifted students who are double minorities: those who are gifted and of a different cultural background, or of low-income status, rendering them doubly vulnerable. One of the ways this can be addressed is by introducing diverse books with an international focus to 9- to 12-year-old gifted students allowing them to see themselves reflected in what they read and to facilitate the learning of social and emotional learning competencies. Using the critical multicultural analysis framework and strategies on promoting multicultural awareness, recommended activities and discussion questions are provided to educators.","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"21 - 36"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43520945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the P-KAP II questionnaire, data were obtained from 541 secondary general schools (SGS) and secondary technical schools (STS). The findings showed that, in relation to students with SENs, schools declare a great interest in the issue of inclusive education, but in the context of gifted students a significant decrease in interest was revealed. The results show a low declared need for schools to deal conceptually with inclusive education, especially focused on gifted education. Schools prefer rather informal, inclusive pedagogical practices and cooperation with external counseling services. SGS schools declared a significantly higher importance of all criteria of inclusive education than do STS schools.","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"37 - 49"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47281317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
