Overview

""Education of Gifted Children"" is a pioneering study in the field of special education, focusing on the unique pedagogical needs of intellectually superior students. Written by Lulu M. Stedman, who was instrumental in the development of specialized learning environments at the University of California, Southern Branch, this work provides a detailed examination of the methods used to foster the growth of gifted youth. Through a series of comprehensive case studies, the book explores the mental, physical, and social characteristics of exceptionally bright children.
