Educational interventions on behalf of the gifted: Do they have lasting impacts on development?

Stem education interventions

Benbow CP, Wai J.
GSID: uFByW4sWrK8J
J Wai, CP Benbow - Talent Development in Gifted Education, 2021 - taylorfrancis.com

Multiple ways have been developed to intervene educationally on behalf of gifted children through three broad categories of academic interventions: Acceleration, grouping, and enrichment, which we review briefly in this chapter. Short-term evaluations indicate acceleration as most effective, then...

Inorganic-Organic Nanocomposite Assembly Using Collagen as Template and Sodium Tripolyphosphate as A Biomimetic Analog of Matrix Phosphoprotein.

Crystal growth & design

Dai L, Qi YP, Niu LN, Liu Y, Pucci CR, Looney SW, Ling JQ, Pashley DH, Tay FR.
PMID: 21857797
Cryst Growth Des. 2011 Aug 03;11(8):3504-3511. doi: 10.1021/cg200663v.

Nanocomposites created with polycarboxylic acid alone as a stabilization agent for prenucleation clusters-derived amorphous calcium phosphate exhibit non-periodic apatite deposition. In the present study, we report the use of inorganic polyphosphate as a biomimetic analog of matrix phosphoprotein for...
