During the school closure in the COVID-19 pandemic, students with special needs including gifted students faced many challenges in terms of educational support. The Turkish Ministry of National Education released a mobile app named “I am special, I am in education” to overcome these challenges. This study aimed to explore how gifted children perceived the experience of learning through this mobile app. Using a phenomenological design, the data were collected from 10 gifted students through focus group interviews and student journals. An inductive approach was used to analyze the data. The findings indicated that although gifted students referred to this experience as weird and different, they also stated that using the app helped their learning. They foregrounded that the app needed improvements and a section for live interaction with other gifted students and teachers to increase their motivation. This study suggests some implications for mobile app developers, educators, and parents.

This article describes the attempt of 2 staff-development practitioners to understand—through practical inquiry—elementary and secondary teachers' multicultural goals and implementation experiences with gifted students in a diverse district. An informal survey of teachers participating in an in-service course on gifted education suggested that many of these teachers had goals and experiences related to multicultural curricula for gifted children. Through the survey, teachers also identified obstacles they encountered in implementing multicultural activities and benefits they perceived. Teachers' stories describing their practice were gathered through observations, written reports, and videotapes. Findings offer several implications for guiding teachers' implementation of content related to diversity.

Small numbers of gifted students in rural schools inhibit programming by special classes or hiring of additional staff. Inadequate financial resources also frequently impede the development of comprehensive programs. Because rural schools vary in capacity and commitment to respond, there are no standard procedures for programming for gifted students. This article develops a foundation for program efforts which acknowledges the diversity among rural schools and respects the capacity of their staff to innovate and use existing community resources.

Inquiry is a dynamic approach to learning and teaching that involves a process of experiencing the natural world. As they pose questions about the information, learners conduct research for genuine reasons, make new discoveries, and test their discoveries to generate new knowledge and understanding. Inquiry is an approach that fits the learning needs of both visually impaired students and students who are gifted, and is especially important for gifted students with visual impairments. We introduce readers to inquiry approaches, review the theoretical framework, outline the characteristics of inquiry learning, explain how these approaches are important to use with gifted children with visual impairments, provide examples, summarize research on the effectiveness of inquiry learning, give an example of science teaching using an inquiry learning model in a regular classroom setting, and show how this lesson could be an effective way to involve and challenge a gifted student with a visual impairment.
