Research has been conducted at The William & Mary Center for Gifted Education in a variety of subject areas, making a significant impact on the field of gifted education, particularly in the area of low-income, underrepresented high-ability students. Early research focused on curriculum efficacy and program quality. Following the retirement of the founder Joyce VanTassel-Baska in 2009, the research agenda included psychological and social research in line with the new Executive Director's expertise. Collaborations have been a cornerstone of the scholarship at the Center throughout its history. This article includes an overview of research and scholarship at the Center, with a focus on the period since Tracy L. Cross became the Executive Director in 2009. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
