Preface

I am honored to write the preface to the third edition of Joyce VanTassel-Baska and Catherine Littles book, Content-Based Curriculum for High-Ability Learners. Joyce introduced me to the field of gifted education when she came to Northwestern University in 1981, and I immediately knew that I had befallen upon a great opportunityto be guided by a person who was so passionate about gifted education and respected in the fieldwho could serve as a role model for me professionally and personally. Under Joyces guidance, I also became a passionate advocate for gifted education.

Joyce and Catherines work on curriculum, including both conceptual pieces and William & Mary curricula for students, has been a major contribution to the field of gifted education, and this third edition continues that tradition.

The first edition of this book came out in 2003. The very title was significant at that time as it emphasized content and learning within domains. Too much of gifted programming had been content-lessemphasizing skills in the absence of challenging, substantive subject matter. The book chapters put a clear focus on how important it was to understand how domains of knowledge are structured and the major concepts and theoretical frameworks within domains, as these have implications for instruction and how acceleration and enrichment are designed and implemented for gifted learners.

Joyce, along with others, chose the name Center for Talent Development for the gifted education center she began at Northwestern decades ago. Now, those wordstalent developmenthave taken on greater meaning and refer to a conceptual framework for gifted education services. Joyce and many of her contemporaries were moving the field of gifted education into a more domain-focused approach 35 years ago, but timing is everything and talent development is only now beginning to take hold as a structure for identification, programming, curriculum, and instruction for gifted children.

There are some notable changes in the collections of chapters from editions 1 to 2 to 3 that reflect this shift toward talent development in the field. For example, there were more chapters devoted to specific content areas in edition 2 than 1, representing an increased emphasis on domain-specific talent development. There is a greater focus in the third edition on special groups of gifted learners such as low-income and minority children, second language learners, and twice-exceptional studentsreflecting the emphasis in the talent development framework on servicing a broader range of learners and on using challenging curriculum to ferret out gifted potential and develop it further. Joyce and Catherines work on several Javits grants illustrated the efficacy of using advanced curriculum buttressed by scaffolds to support emergent talent in a broader range of students. The third edition adds a chapter on curriculum in postsecondary school, emphasizing another important tenet of the talent development framework (i.e., that talent development is best thought of as a long-term process, and gifted education as a field must embrace and address the educational needs of gifted learners beyond K12).
