Mimi Wellisch – Australasian Journal of Gifted Education, 2024

Genevieve Thraves – Australasian Journal of Gifted Education, 2024
Gifted education has been recognised as a fractured field that can be categorised using varying paradigmatic approaches.

David, Hanna – Australasian Journal of Gifted Education, 2023
For many years there has been ongoing, lively debate about the use of the term "gifted" when referring to able, talented, and creative students, or students who have the potential to achieve at a high level.

This article reports a study that compared the talent development infrastructure of Gagné's DMGT (with a…
