They can be found in every section  of society. Despite this, few culturally diverse  students participate in gifted education programs.  Often, students from families with higher social  status are advantaged at the expense of those with  minority status. According to the literature,  biased identification instruments may contribute to  the current underrepresentation of children from low  socio-economic and\/or culturally diverse backgrounds  in gifted education. This book discusses Australian  research on giftedness among primary students in a  low socio-economic area school with a high  representation of minority children. The study used  a specifically developed identification instrument.  Findings suggest a lack of focus on areas such as  creativity by classroom teachers. Instead, the  theachers tended to heavily rely on abilities  reflecting literacy and numeracy skills when  nominating students as potentially gifted. We  recommend to involve parents and guardians in the  process of identifying gifted children and to  promote gifted education to teachers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783838392660\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInvestigating giftedness among socially disadvantaged primary school students in Australia\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783838392660","offer_id":39499016994909,"sku":"9783838392660","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/f94906b1-c0f2-4d9b-a6c3-7f0d6e7ebd98.jpg?v=1775193927","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/can-children-from-minority-backgrounds-be-gifted-von-manuela-guggisberg-und-marika-guggisberg","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
