This book offers guiding principles for culturally diverse environments and curricular choices to support multicultural inclusiveness. Case studies provide examples of exemplary gifted education programs, emphasizing the aspects of the program that best respond to diverse student populations. Subsequent chapters on gifted and general education programs for culturally diverse learners provide an extensive resource for educators and parents seeking programs that are sensitive to the needs of diverse learners. Program descriptions include contact information, curriculum emphasis, identification, grade levels served, and the uniqueness qualities of the program.
