    Comparative Analysis of Gifted Centers
    (Ankara Univ, Fac Educational Sciences, 2023) Agaya, Aysil; Tan, Sema
    Introduction: Differentiation is crucial for gifted students to benefit fully from the advanced curriculum in general education. Along with the strategies used in gifted education, universities have established research and development centers to meet their unique needs. The aim of this study was to examine 17 different gifted education and research centers.Method: As this research is a descriptive case study, the data collection method employed was document analysis. The websites of 17 gifted centers were thoroughly examined using content analysis, focusing on specific themes. The data obtained within the scope of this research were analyzed using both descriptive and content analysis methods.Findings: It was found that the websites of the centers mainly provide details about the center's program, curriculum models, and activities. However, information regarding admission criteria is less frequently available on these websites. Additionally, the majority of personnel in gifted centers are doctoral students, with a smaller proportion of master's students. When it comes to financial support, centers primarily rely on specific funds, with minimal state support. Moreover, centers that specify student admission requirements often adopt a unique evaluation system.Discussion: When the literature was examined, no similar study was found. Based on the findings of the study, future studies can be conducted by comparing the gifted centers in Europe with the centers in other countries and can be expanded by including the education systems of the countries in this study.
