ABSTRACT This article investigates conceptions of giftedness amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. It adopts a qualitative case-study methodology involving 14 participants associated with a scholarship program aimed at developing the academic potential of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth from remote and disadvantaged communities. Using semistructured interviews and a grounded-theory analytical approach, a number of themes were identified. These included an egalitarian basis to the construct, an avoidance of the gifted label, an understanding of giftedness as having learned and innate dimensions as well as a relative view of giftedness. Associations with achievement motivation also were highlighted amongst participants suggesting that views of giftedness have been shifting away from traditional associations. Results further revealed a perception of giftedness linked more to leadership and progress than to previously identified associations with elitism, individualism, and broader Australian societal ideals.

ABSTRACT This article describes district-wide cultural proficiency efforts and how they affected the policies and practices of identifying and serving culturally, linguistically, and economically diverse (CLED) student populations in gifted education. Data were taken from a larger study and included interviews, focus groups, and observations of the district’s gifted identification practices. Data analysis using a culturally relevant leadership (CRL) framework revealed three major findings that emphasized the importance of district advocacy, communication pathways, and conceptions of giftedness. The findings further equity in gifted education for historically marginalized students.

ABSTRACT The four zone professional learning model is a practical, comprehensive approach to striving toward equity through professional learning within gifted education programs. Grounded in equity literacy and funds of knowledge frameworks and based in best practices in culturally responsive gifted professional learning, the zones address the knowledge and skills necessary for proficient teachers of the gifted through the process of systemic change. The model was designed and developed over several years utilizing the plan-study-do-act action research model. This article discusses the methodological evolution of the model, the research and theoretical frameworks in which it is grounded, and future implications.

ABSTRACT Asian culture has been test-centric for over 1,400 years. U.S. education has been since the 1990s. Based on Kim’s creative Climates, Attitudes, and Thinking skills (CATs), creativity indicators were developed using the 2015 PISA questionnaires. Study I examined (a) relationships between students’ PISA science scores and CATs; (b) differences between Asian and U.S. students in PISA scores and CATs; and (c) relationships between teachers’ years of teaching and nurturing CATs. Study I found (a) negative relationships between students’ PISA scores and CATs, (b) Asian students demonstrating higher PISA scores but lower CATs than U.S. students, and (c) U.S. teachers decreasingly nurture CATs. Study II examined how U.S. CATs changed from 1990 through 2017 by analyzing TTCT norming data (N = 273,441) and found continued declines in CATs, especially in imagination and in young children.

ABSTRACT In a qualitative study, we examined experiences from six Olympic coaches from medal winning sports in Norway. We sampled these coaches purposefully based on their athlete and sport development, results, and longevity as national team coaches. The semistructured interviews focused on these coaches’ experiences and strategies, identifying a series of motives and maneuvers as key constituents of longevity in national team coaching, using self-determination theory and the concept of passion to examine the data. These motives relate to connectedness and passion for the sport, coaching, and continuous growth. The maneuvers highlighted are securing of support from important others and from their organizations, maintaining a balance between short- and long-term development, and caring for the person’s own physical and mental health. We position our findings in the context of the literature and draw implications for coaches aspiring to a long career in sport coaching.
