The Integrated Curriculum Model

According to the CGE, the Integrated Curriculum Model (ICM) constructed specifically for the gifted learner is "designed to respond to gifted learners' characteristics of precocity, intensity, and complexity through its three dimensions of advanced content, higher level processes and product development, and interdisciplinary concepts, issues, and themes."
