An inclusive model for gifted kindergarten students: A theoretical study

Abstract

This theoretical investigation was an attempt to develop an inclusive model for gifted kindergarten students. This model will help teachers provide children with positive learning experiences and optimize gifted children’s learning within the general public education system. Previous studies have argued that South Korea has often failed at implementing gifted education programs because of disagreements over the purpose of education, scope of gifted education, definition of giftedness, and development of educational goals or curriculum. This study was an attempt to overcome these difficulties and help promote interactions between teachers and children that create a positive educational environment with abundant learning experiences tailored to individual needs. © Rushing Water Publishers Ltd. 2018.
