The purpose of this essential resource manual for educators of gifted students is twofold: to facilitate the process of differentiation, providing a detailed outline of appropriate curricular modifications, and to provide the means of individualizing the curriculum, according to established performance characteristics.
Differentiation: Gemini provides educators and home-schooling parents of gifted students with a detailed outline of behaviors. It describes four Cognitive and two Affective areas: the Cognitive areas are: Independent Study, Critical Thinking, Creativity and Communication; the Affective areas are Personal Growth and Motivational Development. These areas are divided into 23 networks which are the framework for 449 behaviors.
The authors have organized gifted education into Networks of Instruction that provide a useful tool. In the COGNITIVE DOMAIN, the Independent Study section has three areas: Research, Problem-Solving, and Organization. The Critical Thinking area includes Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation. The Creativity section includes, Fluency, Flexibility, Originality, and Elaboration. The Communication section is divided into Verbal, Non-Verbal, Interpretive, Interpersonal, and Listening.
The AFFECTIVE DOMAIN includes Personal Growth with: Coping with Failure, Decision-Making, Self-Concept, and Critical Acceptance. Motivational Development includes Curiosity, Imagination, Risk Taking, and Complexity.
In each of these 19 Cognitive areas and 8 Affective Areas, the authors have provided behaviors that students will show to demonstrate their comfort and their abilities. These 449 behaviors provide objectives every educator--and home schooling parent--should be attempting to develop.
Individualization: The structure provided by Gemini enables teachers and administrators to assess the particular characteristics of a student. On that basis, individual needs can be identified and programs can be developed to meet them.
Gemini is used by coordinators, curriculum directors, teachers, and authors for the development of curriculum for gifted students. It is a wonderful tool for assessing the thinking abilities and progress of each and every gifted child and it ought to be part of the library of every serious homeschooling parent.
