Abstract
Enrichment for the gifted in the regular classroom was studied with a teacher training workshop developed for the purposes of this study. Participants were 231 second-graders of Luna public schools (in Peru). The instruments used, TCT-DP and the CogAt test, were first culturally adapted to the Lima context. Results reveal a significant ability × time interaction in figural-creative perfonnance and a condition × time significant interaction effect. Also, analysis of school achievement showed an ability × time interaction effect. These findings argue for the further development and use of teacher training programs in educating the gifted within the regular classroom in Lima public schools.
