Abstract
ABSTRACTWhen Marcia Gentry died last year, our field lost a fierce champion for inclusion and equity. In this article, I reflect on her work and the ways in which her early research helped to develop her interests in identifying and supporting the talent development of culturally diverse students. This early research on Enrichment Clusters was facilitated in two urban schools with diverse populations and the insights gained from this work contributed to her beliefs on talent development, more open and equitable identification, and enrichment opportunities for all students.KEYWORDS: diverse populationsenrichment clustersenrichment modelsresearchtalent development Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsSally M.

摘要去年玛西娅·金特里去世后,我们这个领域失去了一位倡导包容与公平的斗士。在这篇文章中,我回顾了她的工作,以及她早期的研究如何帮助她在识别和支持多元文化学生的才能发展方面培养了兴趣。这项关于富集集群的早期研究在两所人口多样化的城市学校中得到了促进,从这项工作中获得的见解有助于她对人才发展、更开放和公平的识别以及为所有学生提供富集机会的信念。关键词:多元人口;财富集群;财富模型;ssally M. Reis担任Letitia Neag教育心理学主席,是董事会杰出教授,曾任康涅狄格大学学术事务副教务长。她还曾担任国家天才研究中心的首席研究员。她对学术上有天赋的学生和以力量为基础的教学法的研究是多样化和广泛的,正如她大量的文章、书籍、书籍章节、专著和技术报告所总结的那样。她的专业研究兴趣涉及不同人群的有才能学生,有才能和残疾学生的教育,有天赋的女孩和妇女,以及利用丰富和力量为基础的教学法来提高所有学生的教育。电子邮件:Sally.reis@uconn.edu
