Building on landmark historical events that highlighted the need for talent development, Gentry fervently worked to address complex, enduring questions within our field, namely: Who are gifted and talented students? How do we find them? What strategies will develop students’ emerging gifts and talents? Gentry’s research on enrichment clusters, cluster grouping, access and equity, identification, and scholarly identity development in underserved youth made commendable progress, but further work is needed. Gentry’s enduring body of work signals an important call to action. We must honor her legacy by answering it.KEYWORDS: enrichmentequitygifted and talented educationidentificationpolicy Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsE.

This was a noble and proper goal: Inequity has been a problem in the field of giftedness since the very beginning. A related challenge that feeds into the inequity problem is that educators often look for the wrong thing. What matters is not merely how gifted a person is, or how many gifts they possess, but rather what they do with those gifts. Many of the problems in today’s world derive from people who are gifted and then use their gifts for selfish and even narcissistic ends. A model is needed that takes into account one’s deployment of gifts, not just one’s possession of them.KEYWORDS: deployment of giftsgiftednesshistorical causal chainsintelligencetransformational giftedness Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsRobert J.

In this tribute to her work and legacy, her early ideas are highlighted. The author describes her professional experiences with Marcia during the years when Marcia was a doctoral student at the University of Connecticut. Recalling her initial motivation for a more inclusive form of identification of gifted students, the author shares Marcia’s experiment with cluster grouping while still working in a public school in Michigan and describes how that experience grew into one of Marcia’s major lines of inquiry in her quest for more inclusive and authentic strategies for identifying gifted and talented youngsters. The author relates how this line of inquiry mirrored her own work in identifying twice-exceptional students using more authentic identification methods. Also explored is Marcia’s early experience with authentic learning as she developed curriculum for Project High Hopes, and how this problem-based curriculum was a precursor for Marcia’s extensive work with Enrichment Clusters as a means to extend gifted pedagogy to all students.

Thankfully, her professional legacy lives through her scholarship. Likewise, her impact on family and friends endures through her timeless gentleness of spirit. This essay reviews Professor Gentry’s decades-long quest for equity and excellence as markers of our field. Toward this end, Marcia proposed that professionals in the highly specialized niche area of gifted education retire the words gifted and giftedness and focus on excellence and talent development. A core value for Marcia was the belief that equitable access to talent development is fundamentally an issue of social justice. In response, I suggest that we consider how to retire these terms from the vantage point of five pivots, ultimately shifting from gifted education to talent discovery and development thereby promoting equity through excellence. The fifth pivot briefly discusses why we must shift from a nearly exclusive educational perspective to one that incorporates psychological components, including developmental and educational psychological principles.KEYWORDS: equityexcellencegiftednessidentificationmegamodel of talent developmenttalent developmenttalent search AcknowledgmentsThis essay was written in Denver, Colorado. I want to acknowledge and affirm Indigenous sovereignty, history, and experiences. May this acknowledgment demonstrate a commitment to working to dismantle ongoing legacies of oppression and inequities and recognize the current and future contributions of Indigenous communities in Denver and throughout the world. I am grateful to the editors of this special issue for this opportunity to pay tribute to Dr. Marcia Gentry through a brief review of her oeuvre regarding excellence, equity, and social justice. This opportunity allowed me to reaffirm for myself, and hopefully for the reader, the necessity of carefully considering how the words gifted and giftedness have impacted our field. It is time to pivot from gifted and giftedness to talent discovery and development.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. Discussing the definition of gifted and talented is beyond the scope of this essay; however, the 1972 Marland Report recognized that “these are children who require differentiated educational programs … beyond those normally provided by the regular school program … Children capable of high performance include demonstrated achievement and/or potential ability in … (a) general intellectual ability; (b) specific academic aptitude; (c) creative or productive thinking; (d) leadership ability; (e) visual and performing arts; (f) psychomotor ability [later removed] (p. ix). Rinn et al. (Citation2022, see page 15) cite the most current federal definition, which reveals that little has changed over a 50-yr period. Perhaps the definition is not the issue, rather how we choose to operationalize the definition?Additional informationNotes on contributorsSusan","PeriodicalId":46979,"journal":{"name":"Roeper Review-A Journal on Gifted Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135901485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
