Top 20 principles from psychology for pre K-12 teaching & learning
Our Gifted and Talented Education Kit for Teachers was developed by GERRIC with the DEEWR in 2004. Despite its age, this free resource is still requested by teachers looking to conduct self-paced online learning to further understand and assist gifted and talented students in their classroom.
Gifted and talented services
GERRIC have compiled a list of gifted and talented services to assist parents and teachers in catering for gifted students. GERRIC and UNSW School of Education do not officially endorse these services, but encourage parents and teachers to use this list as a springboard for their own research and investigations.
Professional development package for teachers
This free education kit for teachers is an incredible resource to teachers who want to make their classrooms exciting and stimulating places for gifted and talented students.
