How do we identify giftedness?

Submitted by Joan_Ernandez on Jan 29, 2014 10:58 am

There are many ways to identify the gifted child. In the Jamaican context, we have been guided by those methods used in the US and the UK. Review the Renzulli Scale which is used as a referral tool for a complete assessment usually by a psychologist. Also, the PPT presentations on the right, under EduExchange Resources, offer some insights to assessment. What is your perspective on the matter?  How relevant are these methods to the Jamaican population? How do cultural differences impact on identification of gifted children in Jamaica?
