      Identifying 2e Students

  • Giftedness is represented through all racial, ethnic, income levels, and exceptionality groups.

  • Early identification in school improves the likelihood that gifts will be developed into talents.
  • Because no two gifted children are alike is important to collect information on both the child's performance and potential through  a combination of objective (quantifiably measured) and subjective (personally observed) identification instruments in order to identify gifted and talented students.

Why Are Gifted Programs Needed? | National Association for Gifted Children - 1 views

  • Gifted Programs Need
    • nikkilh
       
      The need for gifted programs
  • Gifted programming positively influences students’ futures. Several longitudinal studies have shown that gifted programs have a positive effect on students’ post-secondary plans.
  • Further benefits of gifted programs have been shown to include that students who had participated in gifted programs maintained their interests over time and stayed involved in creative productive work after they finished college and graduate school.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Additionally, gifted students need gifted programming in many cases because the “general education program is not yet ready to meet the needs of gifted students” (p. 9) due to lack of general educators’ training in gifted education and the pressure classroom teachers face to raise the performance of their struggling students.

Pull-Out Programs/Specialized Classes | National Association for Gifted Children - 0 views

    • joshua_mooney
       
      Something I found interesting about 2e students in the contexts of pull outs is, the success rate and positive association these students have with smaller groups. It contrasts the experience that a lot of students who are exceptional who get small group pull outs and it makes them feel other. Or like there not able to succeed in the general education class.
