Abstract :This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of using a program in improving teachers' skills in identifying gifted preschoolers. A total of 30 teachers (i.e., 15 in the experimental group and 15 in the control group) participated in the program. A cognitive competency scale was constructed and used for pre- and post-measurements. Results show that the program is effective by using the means and ANCOVA results.Keywords : education, instruction, neuroscience, Malaysia
