Description
The field of gifted education has little information on its teaching workforce and limited studies have sought to identify and describe the teacher traits related to learning outcomes with high-ability learners. As a part of a study using a curricular intervention with gifted students, teacher characteristics and student outcome achievement data were collected from 87 schools in 11 states. Teacher characteristics (e.g., teaching experience in classrooms designated for gifted students, gifted endorsement status) are entered in multilevel analyses in order to investigate association between teacher characteristics and student learning outcomes in classrooms for gifted students.
