EDMST6131 Gifted and Talented Education
This course provides a framework for educators to understand giftedness and the practices associated with gifted education in the school context from both a theoretical and practice-based perspective. It provides opportunities for critically reflective appraisal of the current literature and research relating to identifying and teaching highly able students from a national and international perspective. It supports critical examination of current understandings and practices relating to educating gifted and talented students. Practical application of new understandings are fostered through the assessment tasks. A particular focus of the course is on development of differentiated curricula to engage all ability levels and gifted students in particular.
