  • Comments on an article by Albert Zieglera & Shane N. Phillipson (see record 2012-16824-002). The beginning of China’s gifted education programs in universities seemed promising. However, its proceeding was frustrating. By the end of the 1990s, eight out of the 13 universities had ended their programs for various reasons. How can Chinese gifted education best emerge from this predicament? Undoubtedly, AMG has some implications for the possible solutions. According to the AMG, there is no choice but to go in two directions. First, if we continue to put gifted children into special programs, we must pay more attention to the systematic characteristics of gifted education, particularly to the dynamic, interdependent, interconnected, and interactive characteristics of the system. Second, we must lay more emphasis on the equifinality of the gifted education system. Giftedness is not a personal trait, but a product of systematic achievement behaviors. A gifted education program, even if it is very specialized, does not necessarily bring about giftedness. Common college education, if meeting students’ needs well, can also cultivate giftedness. Thus, another realistic solution to China’s gifted education problems is to offer good developmental opportunities for the ordinary students. In my view, this is a broader way forward.
