A manual on Gifted and Talented Education, it presents models and approaches to develop the talent and creativity of all students. Through the personalization of learning, Joseph Renzulli and Sally Reis’s SEM model allows you to develop the talent and creativity of all students, offering them the resources, opportunities and encouragement to develop their full potential, while guaranteeing an advanced level to students with above average skills, stimulating their cognitive needs and thus preventing the risk of underperforming and dropping out of school.
This takes on even deeper significance for doubly outstanding students who, thanks to this approach, can be seen through the lens of their potential rather than through that of their frailties.
This volume collects the precious contributions of international experts and represents a Manifesto of the pedagogy of talent development that expands the elitist approach of Gifted Education and Gifted Programmes which, traditionally, reserve stimuli and projects for an elite group of students, precisely gifted children.
The inclusive pedagogical approach proposed by Renzulli and Reis, internationally recognized as the main exponents, aims to extend the pedagogy of Gifted Education to the class group, so that schools are places for the development of talent.
