ERIC ED600145: A Definition of Giftedness That Guides Best Practice. Position Statement

The National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC) believes it is essential to define giftedness in a way that both reflects best thinking in the field and moves beyond a focus on identification criteria to a deeper understanding of the complex nature of giftedness and the multi-faceted approach to services required to appropriately serve students with gifts and talents. In this position statement, NAGC provides a definition of giftedness which includes five key elements educators in all settings must address to ensure equitable identification and comprehensive services.
