Abstract
Recent government reports identify the importance of producing individuals with high-level mathematical capabilities who can contribute creatively to Australia’s intellectual capital. To address the shortfall in such individuals, mathematically gifted students must be identified and nurtured. Hence, teachers’ programs need to be well-grounded in research on educating the mathematically gifted. In this paper, we report on the status of research on these students, draw upon our research to inform practice, and highlight myths associated with the education of these students.
