Review :
Dr. Susan Rakow's 3rd Edition of Educating Gifted Students in Middle School is a “must have” guide for educators, counselors and parents of middle school students. The author brings her practical experience teaching and counseling gifted students together with evidence-based research to provide practical strategies that readers will find enlightening, useful and effective.,Sylvia Rimm,Family Achievment Clinic, 7/22/20 An exceptionally well written, organized and presented textbook, this new third edition of Educating Gifted Students in Middle School: A Practical Guide is unreservedly recommended for school district, college, and university library Teacher Education reference collections in general, and Gifted Education supplemental curriculum studies lists in particular.,James A. Cox,Midwest Book Review, 8/17/20 Each chapter deals with a topic that these educators are more than likely to experience in a school setting, the issues and topics faced by students in everyday life, and the goals and challenges that each gifted student encounters in school and in their community. Rakow also goes beyond that to show educators what trends are coming into schools and how to plan for these coming trends.,Lewie Dunn,Georgia Military College, 8/25/20
