[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All children are curious, creative, and motivated. Most teachers are able to discern when those traits are typical or exceptional. This discernment is reflected in the GBRS. [/quote] More than 70% of gifted kids are introverts with deeper thoughts. It won't be easy for teachers without proper and enough training to fairly identify them. [/quote] Who says? [/quote] Here's one source from quick Google search. http://www.gifteddevelopment.com/What_is_Gifted/learned.htm "[b]About 60% of gifted children are introverted compared with 30% of the general population. Approximately 75% of highly gifted children are introverted.[/b] Introversion correlates with introspection, reflection, the ability to inhibit aggression, deep sensitivity, moral development, high academic achievement, scholarly contributions, leadership in academic and aesthetic fields in adult life, and smoother passage through midlife; however, it is very likely to be misunderstood and “corrected” in children by well-meaning adults."[/quote]
