Education of Gifted and Talented Students in Mainland China, Taiwan, and Japan.
Stevenson, Harold W.; And Others
Journal for the Education of the Gifted, v17 n2 p104-30 Win 1994
This article examines East Asian societies' response to students who are gifted academically or talented in the arts, music, or sports, focusing on educational practices in China, Taiwan, and Japan. The study concludes that establishment of gifted education programs is not determined by economic development level or school quality but by the culture's philosophy of education. (JDD)
