Abstract

This paper advocates for the critical role of Individualized Education Programs in addressing the unique needs of gifted learners, emphasizing their superiority over less formal education plans due to legal enforceability and structured individualization. Despite policy inconsistencies and varied state approaches, IEPs provide a robust framework. Challenges in developing effective IEPs for gifted students include widespread misconceptions, inadequate educator training, administrative hurdles, and difficulties in crafting ambitious, measurable goals. This paper employs a systematic literature review methodology, utilizing a transparent and reproducible procedure for selecting, clustering, and summarizing relevant academic material from various databases. Key considerations for effective IEPs encompass comprehensive identification, the formulation of SMARTAC goals, differentiated curriculum, explicit attention to socio-emotional needs, meaningful parental involvement, and tailored accommodations, modifications, and support services. Ultimately, a meticulously written Present Levels of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance is crucial for guiding a dynamic educational plan that fosters intellectual growth and holistic well-being.
