A Strategy for the Identification of the Culturally Different Gifted/Talented Child.
Mitchell, Bruce M.
Roeper Review, v10 n3 p163-65 Mar 1988
A proper proportion of low-income participants and children of color should be identified for gifted/talented education programs. A modified quota system can be implemented by combining the use of intelligence tests and behavioral scales with individualized selection procedures that provide special consideration for poor, minority, and handicapped students.
