Increasing Diversity in Gifted Education provides guidance for meeting the educational needs of high-potential students across many racial, ethnic, language, and economic groups as well as some categories of disability. Using this book, educators of high potential and gifted students from backgrounds that are traditionally underrepresented and underserved in gifted and advanced instructional settings, can guide these students to achieve and make significant contributions to all aspects of American society. Practitioners will also gain the information and knowledge needed to increase the identification of culturally, linguistically, and ethnically diverse (CLED) and twice-exceptional students for gifted education programs and services.

Increasing Diversity in Gifted Education is a must read for administrators, specialists, teachers and others who work in gifted education.  In many schools and school districts, students from diverse populations, such as minorities, English language learners, students with learning disabilities and students living in poverty, have been underrepresented in gifted programs.  This informative and insightful book shares research-based best practices and strategies for identifying and providing program services for gifted students from underserved and underrepresented populations. The book provides practical solutions for increasing diversity in gifted education.  Now the work is to put these solutions into practice.
