The expert guide to the major issues, the chief trends, and the most effective models of program evaluation in gifted education!

The readings in this ready-reference report on specific program evaluations, offer critical guidance in the development and utilization of instruments for assessing gifted and talented programs, and are designed to stimulate the discussion of issues surrounding the evaluation of gifted programs.

Key features include:
