Description - Youth Who are Gifted: Integrating Talents and Intelligence by Sheila Nelson
Ann has problems with school. It's not that she can't do the work - it's just that she's bored. Her ideas never seem to be the ones her teachers want to hear. And she doesn't seem to fit in with the other kids. Having gifts and talents that are different from others around you can be difficult, especially when you're a teenager. Many of the world's great leaders and inventors, however - people like Einstein and Leonardo da Vinci, Madame Curie, and Mother Teresa - were "gifted": they had something special to offer, and because they shared their gifts with those around them, they helped change the world. In the twentieth century, educators and governments recognized that these "special" people are important to our world; as a result, schools and governments worked to create educational programs that would nurture and develop future leaders.
