"Gifted
education (also known as Gifted and Talented Education
(GATE), Talented and Gifted (TAG), or G/T) is a broad
term for special practices, procedures and theories used
in the
education of
children who have been identified as
gifted or talented. There is no standard global
definition of what a gifted student is. In 2011, the
National Association of Gifted Children published a
position paper that defined what a gifted student is.
Gifted describes individuals who demonstrate
outstanding aptitude or competence in one or more
domains. Aptitude is defined as an exceptional
ability to learn or reason. Competence is defined
as documented performance or achievement in the top 10%
of the population".
