What Is This Thing Called Giftedness, and How Do We Develop It? A Twenty-Five Year Perspective

***

Every learner has strengths or potential strengths that can be used as a foundation for effective learning and creative productivity. The Schoolwide Enrichment Model (SEM) (Reis & Renzulli, 1985) capitalizes on these strengths by offering students options to realize their own potential. Through service delivery components like Curriculum Compacting and Enrichment Clusters, students are insured of being exposed to high level and challenging learning experiences. A third component, the Total Talent Portfolio¹ (TTP) serves as the framework by which all the other elements of the model can be organized.[1] Some questionnaires and similars are used to access the students abilities and preferences in order to offer adequate clusters and research opportinities.
