Regular Classroom Practices With Gifted Students: Results of a National Survey of Classroom Teachers Francis X. Archambault, Jr. Karen L. Westberg Scott W. Brown Bryan W. Hallmark Christine L. Emmons Wanli Zhang Recommendations Every effort should be made to continue to offer gifted programs, thereby bringing gifted students in contact with teachers who are specially trained to meet their needs. New and more concentrated efforts must be made to help classroom teachers provide gifted students with an enriched curriculum. These efforts include: development of curriculum materials that are challenging teacher training in using curricular materials, identifying the gifted, compacting the regular curriculum, and becoming flexible in meeting the needs of all students, including gifted students.

175. National Excellence A Case For Developing America's Talent- 1993 A report on the status of the education of the nation's gifted and talented students, described as the quiet crisis. http://www.ed.gov/pubs/DevTalent/intro.html

A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n National Excellence: A Case for Developing America's Talent - October 1993 Foreword More than 20 years have elapsed since the last national report on the status of educating gifted and talented students. Much has changed since that report alerted Americans to the pressing needs of these youngsters and challenged policymakers to provide them with a better education. National Excellence: The Case for Developing America's Talent discusses these changes. It also describes the "quiet crisis" that continues in how we educate top students. Youngsters with gifts and talents that range from mathematical to musical are still not challenged to work to their full potential. Our neglect of these students makes it impossible for Americans to compete in a global economy demanding their skills. Americans can celebrate improvements over the past two decades in how we educate gifted and talented students. The public is more aware that these students have special needs that are seldom met. The number of programs for gifted and talented youngsters has grown substantially. Many states have enacted legislation encouraging local school districts to provide special opportunities for high-achieving and talented students. And, most significantly, model programs for gifted and talented students have challenged educators to improve curriculum and teaching strategies and encouraged them to raise expectations for all students. But American education is now at a turning pointone that requires us to reach beyond current programs and practices. As the nation strives to improve its schools, the concerns of students with outstanding talents must not be ignored. International tests comparing American students with those in other countries show that students at all levels of achievement are not performing as well as students in many other countries. It is clear that many more American students must learn more complex material, and to do this they must work harder.
