Based on the current conception and trend, gifted education is comprehensive and multiple facets in nature, its focus is shifting from cultivating elitism exclusively to overall talent development, attention is being paid to both excellence and equity, caring for top students as well as providing more opportunities for able ones. As enrichment vs. acceleration and inclusion vs. separation are continued controversial issues, the principles of ”form follows function' and ”adaptive and quality education” may be the resolution. For the innovation and creating a new era of gifted education, we should have a global view with local actions in this regard.
