Although computers can be a terrific resource for all children, gifted children particularly benefit from the individualization provided by-different computer applications. For the gifted child who finishes written class exercises quickly, computer programs may extend subject matter. From my observations, however, teachers use computers primarily for drill and practice exercises and word processing.

India is currently focusing on providing education for all, and special population like the gifted is being neglected. This is evident in the case of Aditya (IQ 145), a 7-year-old boy, and his parents who after discovering that their child is gifted attempt to meet his unique educational needs. Despite evidence of Aditya qualifying in examination two grades above his age level, the school authorities neither offer acceleration nor provide appropriate resources. This study attempts to delineate the importance of combined efforts of parent, school, and the community in nurturing gifted children. Finally, the researcher makes a few recommendations for parents: (i) create support groups to share parenting experiences; (ii) explore online and local learning resources to educate themselves about giftedness and nurture their children; and (iii) identify mentors in the community or other parents who can support in meeting the educational needs of these children.

This chapter deals with patentable subject matter and the ways in which it is regulated under the Patents Act 1977 and the 2000 European Patents Convention (EPC). More specifically, it discusses five criteria that an invention must satisfy to be patentable, including the requirement that it must be capable of ‘industrial application’, and that patents are not granted for immoral inventions. The chapter also considers two different approaches that are used when deciding whether an invention falls within the scope of section 1(2)/Article 52(2): the ‘technical effect’ approach in the UK and the ‘any hardware’ approach applied by the European Patent Office. Finally, it examines how the law deals with a number of specific types of invention and looks at possible reforms, particularly in relation to computer programs and computer-related inventions.

This article is written for the ultimate expert on the gifted child: you, the parent. After all, you know him longer than anybody, and you know him best. You may not be an authority on education of the gifted, but you are the leading expert on your own child; nobody else can make that claim. Listen politely, but ignore the well-meaning neighbor who thinks that your child must skip herself out of age mates and suitable friends in order to survive in school. You don't have to believe blindly every self-styled expert on gifted children you talk to. Take with a grain of salt the concerned professional who predicts failure for your child in public school and recommends placement in a private school for gifted children. A psychologist in one of the most respected universities in the country laid this on me after testing my five-year-old. I spent a whole year, looking for a non-existent school that we could not have afforded anyway. Maybe my children did not learn all they could in public school (does anybody?), but learn they did, and they went on to the colleges of their choice and productive young adulthood. Listen carefully to your child's teacher because your child in school may not be the one you know at home, and that makes for useful information. But use your own good instincts and gut feelings to decide for yourself what will best help your child become, to quote the late Dr. Elizabeth Drews, more fully human. So, dear authority on your child, look critically at the suggestions that follow and decide for yourself if they apply to your family. I hope they will be helpful to you because it is not easy to be the parent of a gifted child. But even if they are not applicable, I hope that your evaluation of my suggestions will help you arrive at your own solutions, because you should remember: You know best.

Gifted Girls

Teachers of the gifted enrolled in a master's program in gifted education responded to instruments designed to elicit their attitudes toward gifted children. Prior to the program their perceptions of “the typical gifted child” and “the most gifted individual whom I have taught” were highly similar. After the program, similar ratings of “the typical gifted child” and a specific pupil with whom they worked during the summer practicum were much more diverse, suggesting that they were tending to a clearer perception of individuals. They did, however, show several trends which tended to indicate the existence of certain stereotypes. In particular, there was a strong tendency to describe gifted girls in a considerably more favorable manner than gifted boys. Older pupils also tended to be described more unfavorably than younger ones (under 12 years).

Unique Potential

Every human being comes into this world with his or her unique potential. That is why the importance of individualization in education is emphasized so strongly — especially inteaching gifted children. Yet, to begin with, how to define a gifted child? What does it mean? Facing the challenges of the education system, are teachers able to identify gifted students in their classrooms? Can they plan their work so that it simultaneously develops gifted students' abilities and supports them in other areas? The research undertaken attempts to answer these and other questions.
