North Carolina legislation mandating services for the gifted as exceptional children has heightened the need for inservice preparation of regular classroom teachers. Inservice preparation for rural school teachers is complicated by a scarcity of resource personnel and a lack of continuity and reinforcement of inservice activities. E.S.E.A. Title IV-C Project G.A.I.T. (Gifted Are Important Too) has demonstrated a program design for rural schools which includes a pre- and postassessment of teaching styles with the CAQ (Class Activities Questionnaire), program instruction of both teachers and students in the use of Bloom's Taxonomy with S.O.A.R. (Stages for Opportunities to Academic Realization), and reinforced monthly by teacher demonstrations of related learning activities. The active participation of the teachers in the inservice activity seemed to enhance their effectiveness as resource personnel for gifted education in their respective schools.

Level Of Understanding

General classroom teachers are being called upon to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse population of students. Although abundant research documents the specific needs of gifted students, too little is being done at the preservice teacher level to prepare our teachers to recognize and meet these needs (e.g., Feldhusen & Kolloff, 1986; VanTassel-Baska, 2003). This study examined the change in beliefs by one cohort of preservice teachers after participation in a gifted education course and practicum. Interviews with the participants following the intervention period were used to assess the participants' perceptions of the effect the course and practicum had on their understanding of gifted students' needs and their ability to meet those needs. Interview data were triangulated with classroom observations and lesson plans created by the participants for use during the practicum. Findings indicated the participants perceived an increase in their overall level of professional development, as well as an increase in their level of understanding of the characteristics and needs of gifted students.

The teacher's difficulties in teaching are weaknesses in preparing thematic lesson plans and the lack of adequate learning resources for students. The purpose of this development and research is to provide facilities and new innovations for elementary school teachers in developing module teaching materials. The hope is that this module can be used as an additional supplement for students and as an effort to apply environmental awareness as found in character education. This study used the research and development method of Borg & Gall. The results of the feasibility validation from the experts showed that the percentage of 89.4% was feasible. While aspects of the application of teachers and students of module products through questionnaires showed an average percentage of 92.5% with very good criteria and could be used without revision. While the effectiveness of modules is seen from two aspects, namely learning outcomes with a mean percentage of 95.2% showing complete learning and learning activities showing active information with a percentage of 77.4%. While the value of environmental care attitude shows a percentage of 3%, namely a good attitude towards the environment of residence.

Experts have developed varying, and sometimes conflicting, conceptions of academic talent and giftedness. Classroom and school composition often are tied to these conceptions of academic talent and giftedness, and magnet and charter schools select certain students who best “fit” their particular conception of giftedness. Educators’ perceptions and attitudes regarding academic talent and giftedness thus impact what services are delivered to which students. Little is known about educators’ beliefs regarding conceptions of academic talent and giftedness. The current national study surveyed 900 public school educators, including regular classroom teachers, administrators, and gifted education specialists, regarding their definitions of academic talent and giftedness. The educators believed that all traditional and popular conceptions of academic talent and giftedness were valid, but they were less likely to support definitions involving talents in less-traditional areas. Educators accepted some of the more recently conceived, and more inclusive, conceptions of academic talent or giftedness. Such results are potentially valuable to school administrators, gifted education specialists, and regular classroom teachers who work with academically talented and gifted students, as well as to those who are concerned with the factors influencing school or classroom composition.

<p>Teachers are a facilitator of the learning process. Teachers give pupils an ample time to discover new things on their own. Many challenges faced by the teachers in facilitating the activity of learners such as planning, creating, preparing, and selecting the materials used in the activity. Because of this, the task of the teachers is multi-faceted. Many things to be considered in making learning activities, must suit the capability of the learners, this activity can be adapted to different learning styles, and the activity must stimulate the interest of the learners. But not all activities are fitted for all learners because learners are diverse and unique in nature. The needs of pupils are the major concern of the teachers, to retain the learning of the pupils and especially the learning could apply in their daily lives for meaningful learning. The research dealt with the challenges of the teachers in increasing the learning retention among pupils and possible activities that stimulate the interest of the learners. This research measure the responses measured in getting the frequency, percentage, and weighted mean using formulas to analyze the data gathered. Utilize descriptive design with a survey questionnaire as the research instrument. This research has two sets of respondents the grade school teachers and pupils. <br></p>

Abstract. This journal discusses the development of variations in teaching in increasing learning motivation. The learning process is an activity that involves an individual (physical and spiritual), learning activities are never carried out without a strong motivation or motivation from within the individual or from outside the individual who participates in learning activities. Therefore, the learning process requires the development and use of variations in teaching to generate student motivation. Variations in teaching include variations in teaching styles, variations in media and materials, and variations in teaching and learning interactions. Motivation has a very important role in learning activities, there is no learning activity without motivation, therefore motivation has a strategic role in achieving the goals or results of learning. Keywords: Development Of Teaching Variations and Motivation to Learn
