Qualitative Case Study in Gifted Education

Sal Mendaglio

All forms of research methodology contribute to the field of gifted education. The focus of this article is the unique contribution that qualitative case study research makes. Case study as a form of qualitative research activity is a vehicle by which researchers enable our hearing of the voices of gifted persons. In this article, issues relating to research plans in qualitative case study are discussed. From a selection of case study articles drawn from 4 journals in gifted education, 2 are identified as exemplars of qualitative case study research in gifted education. The works of Coleman (2001) and Hébert and Beardsley (2001) are used to illustrate how researchers can plan qualitative case studies such that the perspectives of gifted students are included in the discourse in gifted education.
