I have read everything I can find on girfted children. Trying to determine if it really is a trainable skill. This article is by far the most convincing one to me. Have a read. Interestingly I thought/think the creative thinking part of gifted people was the only part I wasn’t convinced could be taught. This article holds clear evidence that it is. Find the bits on hypothetical questions.
Very fascinating article. Mankind has an amazing potential and has had it for a long time. If we could just get more people on the early learning bandwagon, our future is going to be blazing bright. Its still bright either way.
