Description
There is limited research documenting the impact of curricular models in large-scale studies across multiple settings. Two reading units based on the CLEAR curriculum model (based on the critical components of Differentiation, Depth and Complexity, and Schoolwide Enrichment models) were developed to provide differentiated instruction to gifted students. This study describes achievement results for gifted students in 3rd grade classroom from 87 schools in 11 states. Data analyses indicate statistically significant differences favoring the treatment group over the comparison group on outcome measures. These results attest that two CLEAR curricular units for gifted students have positive impact on student achievement.
