SOCIO-EMOCIONALNI I OBRAZOVNI FAKTORI RAZVOJA DAROVITOSTI
SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL AND DIDACTIC FACTORS IN TALENT DEVELOPMENT

Summary/Abstract: There is no one integrated theory about recognizing and developing talent. The definition of talent has evolved, from intelligence coefficients (IQ), as the only valid indicator of talent, to many other kinds of intelligence and capabilities. The biggest role is given to the environment as a factor, which forms and even creates a talented individual. However, the role of a child in its own development is not properly understood and is unjustifiably neglected. Many gifted children do not have academic, but rather social and emotional problems, which prevent them from fully using their potentials. In order to enable talented students to develop emotionally and socially, the curriculum must take into consideration the following seven factors: awareness and understanding of oneself, understanding of others, interpersonal experiences, group processes and interactions, creativity, relaxation and visual imagination and, finally, problems associated with being gifted.
