Comparing Elementary School Early enroll-ment in Taiwan and Australia

提早入學服務是臺灣目前學前資優教育的主要服務方式，透過加速性的課程學習來滿足資優學生旺盛的學習動機與學習需求。臺灣的提早入學服務因統一的法規而使各縣市的提早入學鑑定模式相似，各縣市發展至今已穩定、落實且各具系統，其發展脈絡與形式與澳洲相比截然不同，兩國各具特色。
本文前段簡介臺灣在學前資優教育上的服務型態與提早入學服務發展歷程，說明臺灣與澳洲各具特色的提早入學鑑定模式，並針對內涵進行比較。本文後段搜集與列舉兩國的教師及家長在提早入學上的態度與看法，探討與比較其殊異。在文章尾段，針對臺灣現行之提早入學服務提出五項建議，希冀提早入學服務的實施可以更加彈性與符合資優兒童的需求。
