The Integrated Curriculum Model A Basis for RtI Curriculum Development

This chapter addresses the features of the Integrated Curriculum Model (ICM), the research base for its use, and the applications of the model to curricula for gifted learners in each subject area.

The ICM approaches the design and implementation process of working with gifted learners in schools as comprehensive. The theoretical support for the Integrated Curriculum Model comes primarily from learning theory and development.
