How to Make Gifted Education Creative

Abstract

After reading numerous texts dedicated to the education of the gifted (which mostly referred to the definition of giftedness, identifying gifted students, the development of gifted programmes, the implementation of such programs and the evaluation of their effects), I came across a paper which attempts to offer a comprehensive analysis in this field and establishes that gifted education needs to strengthen conceptual foundations. I agree with D. Ambrose and congratulate him on his courage to risk linking what is unrelated in order to introduce innovation and create a new order in this field. To what extent the given proposals relate only to gifted education, or whether their implementation could be wider and refer to education in general, we will discuss later. In any case we were given a reasoned and wellargued text in which the author skilfully draws conclusions and forms questions which are relevant to the subject on the basis of the analysis of achievements from various sciences.
