Sternberg, Robert J.; Karami, Sareh – Roeper Review, 2021
We propose that wisdom should be considered in understanding, identifying, and developing skills of thought translated into action in gifted children and adults. First, we review some of the history of the gifted field and conclude that ideas about understanding, identification, and instruction are largely obsolete and based on assumptions that…

Dixson, Dante D.; Peters, Scott J.; Makel, Matthew C.; Jolly, Jennifer L.; Matthews, Michael S.; Miller, Erin M.; Rambo-Hernandez, Karen E.; Rinn, Anne N.; Robins, Jennifer H.; Wilson, Hope E. – Phi Delta Kappan, 2021
Schools exist to educate, yet the emphasis on age-based, grade-level standards fails to account for the wide range of academic readiness that exists in every classroom. Special education programs exist to meet student needs; gifted education should be no different. The authors, all gifted education researchers, present a vision for a model of…

Lupkowski-Shoplik, Ann; Assouline, Susan G.; Lange, Randolph – Gifted Child Today, 2022
Whole-grade acceleration moves a student up one or more grades in response to that student's academic needs. Although grade-skipping is supported by decades of research, this type of acceleration is not often used. Acceleration policies make whole-grade acceleration available to more students who would benefit, encourage more educators to use the…

Robert J. Sternberg – Gifted Education International, 2024
Individuals are typically identified as gifted largely on the basis of competence in limited contexts, but their performance in the real world, both as children and adults, often lags far behind their competence. Thus, the identification of the individuals as "gifted," however useful in theory, is much less useful in practice. This…

Dexter, Marques R.; Collins, Kristina H.; Grantham, Tarek C. – Gifted Child Today, 2021
Professional athletes and entertainers are often identified as the source of emulation for young males, especially Black males. With far less romanticized career representations than those in the athletic arena, many Black families foster, knowingly and unknowingly, a polarized path to elusive goals of a professional athletic career. Explicitly…

Chancey, Jaclyn M.; Butts, Jennifer Lease – Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council, 2018
The seeming lack of connection between honors and gifted education has puzzled us for some time. Both of us incorporated gifted education and higher education into our doctoral studies, and both of our dissertations used gifted education theories as lenses into the honors student experience. Our lives as researchers and higher education…

Some students with gifts and talents (SWGT) are among the thousands of youths who die by suicide every year, although there is no way to know how many.

Peters, Scott J.; Carter, James; Plucker, Jonathan A. – Phi Delta Kappan, 2021
In the 21st century, what does a defensible, equitable model of gifted and talented student identification look like? For too long, gifted education's reason for being has been unclear, and the students it has served have been from too narrow a segment of the student population. With renewed attention to equity and personalized learning, gifted…
