Adjustments to Traditional Procedures for Identifying Underserved Students: Successes and Failures.
Hunsaker, Scott L.
Exceptional Children, v61 n1 p72-76 Sep 1994
A survey of 39 school districts serving large numbers of culturally diverse students found that many districts listed gifted students from ethnic/linguistic minorities or economically disadvantaged as important underserved populations. Alternative identification procedures were primarily intended to expand the assessment basis, and factors associated with success included quality school personnel and the assessment practices themselves.
