GT-Curriculum Compacting
Curriculum compacting is a flexible, research-supported instructional technique for modifying the regular curriculum to meet the needs of high ability students. This technique is a form of content acceleration that enables high-ability students to skip work they already know and substitute more challenging content. The goals of compacting are to streamline work that may be mastered at a pace commensurate with the student's ability, create a challenging learning environment, guarantee proficiency in basic curriculum, and buy time for enrichment and acceleration

World Class Arena
http://www.worldclassarena.org/
World Class Arena is a global initiative designed to identify and nurture gifted and talented students around the world.
As a teacher you may already be educating gifted and talented students who would welcome the opportunity to become involved with a programme that caters to their needs.
As a parent you may have recognised that your child has advanced abilities in the areas of mathematics and problem solving.
And as a student, you may be one of perhaps the top 10 percent of the entire population that is considered gifted and talented. Then the World Class Arena could be just what you need!
The World Class Arena consists of tests, resources and support materials. It is a global forum for sharing and comparing results worldwide and will continue to grow and evolve as the project expands.
