Giftedness, talent, expertise, and creative achievement are inextricably linked concepts. As we seek to understand the development of abilities in youth and the rise to high-level achievement in adulthood, these concepts may guide our efforts to nurture and establish conditions for their full fruition. The purpose of this chapter, then, is to examine the basic nature of giftedness, talent, expertise, and creative achievement and their interrelationships as they affect and guide the education of gifted and talented youth and to delineate guidelines for the development of high-level and creative achievement in adulthood. What genetic potentials and facilitative conditions combine and interact to produce expertise and/or high-level creative achievement? From exhaustive study of the lives of creative achievers, Gardner (1993) and Simonton (1997) offer some insights based on in-depth analysis of the lives of high-level, creative achievers. At first one is struck by the diversity among very high achievers: staid Albert Einstein, flamboyant Picasso, isolated Georgia O'Keefe, scholarly Darwin, and adventurous Ernest Hemingway! Are there common characteristics that might account for their genius or serve as predictors of creative achievement? Or are they too unique as examples of high-level achievement? Insights derived from research on the lives of great achievers are examined later in this chapter. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: create)

Giftedness is a concept ingrained in our educational vocabulary. We often think of a small, elite group of academically and intellectually bright children, sitting in classrooms, hungry for bookish knowledge. In fact, "giftedness" is a narrow conception of a multifactor phenomenon better described as "talent." This chapter promotes the concept of talent and talent development, first providing some historical background information about the concept of giftedness in American education, including the nature–nurture debate. Next, some of the myths surrounding gifted education are debunked by identifying the failures of the system to recognize and foster talents. Finally, models are presented that explore the development of academic, artistic, vocational, and personal—social talents in schools and that delineate a developmental sequence of talent development.
