{"product_id":"identification-scott-hunsaker-9781931280174","title":"Identification: The Theory and Practice of Identifying Students for Gifted and Talented Education Services","description":"\u003cp\u003eEditor Scott L. Hunsaker's new volume sheds much-needed light on the process of identifying students for gifted education services, a topic surrounded by controversy and confusion. With contributions from leading experts in the field, \u003ci\u003eIdentification\u003c\/i\u003e takes an in-depth look at the research and practice of identification of gifted and talented students. Each of the four sections tackles an important aspect of the issue: Theoretical Foundations, Professional Foundations, Identification Practice, and Instrumentation. The text presents multiple points of view and does not shy away from thorny issues such as the theory-practice gap, underrepresentation of diverse populations, identification as status bestowal rather than assessment process, rigidity in use of processes and instruments, the search for the magic-bullet test, and the validity of nonverbal intelligence tests. Whether you are an administrator, teacher, gifted education specialist, professor, or parent, \u003ci\u003eIdentification\u003c\/i\u003e will offer you insight presented nowhere else.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Scott Hunsaker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1931280177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781931280174\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.90h x 8.40w x 1.00d","brand":"Scott Hunsaker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075160305919,"sku":"9781931280174","price":79.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_630f761e-e0bb-4344-935e-4ef4a22d5186.jpg?v=1685457950","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/identification-scott-hunsaker-9781931280174","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
