Opportunities and Challenges of Talent Development for Students Placed At-Risk
Treffinger, Donald J.
International Journal for Talent Development and Creativity, v1 n2 p79-84 Dec 2013
Let us suppose that schools are, or might strive to become, places in which educators work collaboratively with parents and the wider community to recognize, nurture, and celebrate the strengths and talents in all people (cf., McCluskey, Treffinger, & Baker, 1995). Based on such a vision for education, this article describes a practical model of education for talent development and identifies several ways in which that model can contribute to effective educational experiences for students who have been placed at-risk.
