Although not specifically about gifted education, this might be an interesting chat. Certainly something that would work for a lot of our kids.

Disruptive Innovation in Education: A Conversation with Clayton M. Christensen and Michael B. Horn

About This Chat:
An idea that was once on the margins of the national education debate�that schools should customize learning to better meet the needs of individual students�has moved far closer to the mainstream. Today, some leading scholars see fundamental changes starting to take root, in part because of new avenues of customization made possible by digital technology. A recent book co-authored by best-selling business expert Clayton Christensen, Disrupting Class: How Disruptive Innovation Will Change the Way the World Learns, has touched a nerve by predicting that within a decade, half of all courses at the high school level will be delivered online.

Join us for an exclusive online discussion with Clayton M. Christensen and Michael B. Horn, authors of Disrupting Class: How Disruptive Innovation Will Change the Way the World Learns.

Our guests argue that each student needs a customized learning approach to maximize his or her potential because people learn differently from one another. When a teaching approach is better aligned with a student�s aptitudes, they believe, understanding will come more easily and the student will be more motivated in school.
