ABSTRACT In this article, we present a hierarchical model for teaching scientific thinking to gifted students. This article follows up on an article published 40 years ago in this journal. The problem now, as 40 years ago, is that gifted students often are taught science courses at a more intensive level, but without their truly learning how to think scientifically. We argue that students of science need not only learn the content of science courses, but also learn, at a deep level, how to think scientifically. Our model addresses the issue of what this deep level consists of. Level I involves Teaching Scientific Knowledge. Level II involves Teaching Scientific Problem Solving. Level III involves the deepest level of scientific thinking: Teaching Scientific Problem Finding. We end the article with conclusions about these issues.

Eugene Tssui was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota. During primary school and middle school in the 1960s he was part of an experiment at the University of Minnesota in creativity and talent development, which was initiated by educational psychologist, E. Paul Torrance. Tssui attended Columbia University, the University of Oregon, and the University of California, Berkeley, where he acquired an interdisciplinary doctorate in architecture and education. He worked for the organizing committee of the 1976 Montreal Summer Olympics and with the revolutionary American and German architects, Bruce Goff and Dr. Frei Otto. He opened his own California-based firm in 1990 and was asked to teach architecture and ecology at elite universities in China from 1999 to 2015, and at UC Berkeley. He is the author of seven international books on architecture, ecology, and behavioral change and over 100 international articles about his work. He has won grant awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Graham Foundation, and the American Institute of Architects. In 2013 he was given the title, “Guardian Angel of the Planet,” sharing this title with Jane Goodall and Jean Michael Cousteau, conferred by Project Coyote, a national coalition of scientists and educators. He is a world and senior Olympic level competitive athlete and is the four-time Gymnastics all-around Champion in the Senior Olympics, an eight-time Amateur Boxing World Champion, and an eight-time recipient of U.S. Presidential Sports Awards conferred by U.S. Presidents, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. He also is a music composer and his piano pieces have been performed in the United States and China. Dr. Tssui’s interdisciplinary/ anticipatory philosophy is a platform for his adventurous search for meaning, purpose, and excellence in a multidimensional way of life. He has been featured on numerous television programs such as National Geographic, Discovery Channel, PBS, CNN, The McNeil/Lehrer Report, MTV Cribs, The Learning Channel, Disney Channel, CCTV China, EuroTV, NBC and others. He is married to sociologist/educator, Dr. Elisabeth P. Montgomery. They have three children and four grandchildren, and reside in Emeryville and Mount Shasta, California and Shenzhen and Shanghai, China.

Dogmatism, creativity, and critical thought: The reality of human minds and the possibility of critical societies. The millions who have suffered and died due to the dogmatism-saturated ideologies in various parts of the world during the COVID pandemic show how important it is for bright, talented, influential individuals to align their thinking with scientific processes while dealing with a wide array of issues in the world today.......... How dogmatic beliefs harm creativity and higher-level thinking (pp. 37 - 49).

ABSTRACT The study examined the relationship between implicit theories of intelligence and psychosocial competencies (measured as adaptability, general mood, intrapersonal skills, interpersonal skills, and stress management), the differences in these competencies between gifted students and nonidentified gifted students, and typologies of these variables among 81 gifted students in grades 6–8. Findings indicated that malleable beliefs about intelligence were related to adaptability, general mood, and to a small degree total emotional intelligence. Gifted students had higher scores on adaptability (d = .51) compared to a normative sample and lower scores on intrapersonal skills (d = −.30). Hierarchical cluster and discriminant function analyses yielded three distinct clusters indicating within-group differences, with Cluster 1 showing lowest scores on all measured scales. Findings imply how the interplay of psychosocial variables facilitates talent development.

ABSTRACT In this two-part study, high-ability students’ experiences of need support, need satisfaction, and motivation in regular and pull-out classes were compared. Quantitative results from Study 1 indicated that high-ability students (N = 203) reported more satisfaction of their needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness and more favorable motivational outcomes in their pull-out class compared to their regular class. In both settings, need satisfaction predicted high-ability students’ motivational outcomes. These findings could be explained by the qualitative findings from Study 2 which indicated that high-ability students (N = 11) experienced pull-out class teachers as more supportive of their needs than their regular class teachers. Overall, findings suggest that need-supportive teaching is an effective strategy to foster high-ability students’ motivation in both regular classes as well as pull-out classes.

ABSTRACT Twice-exceptional individuals (2e) are highly gifted/talented or creative but have a disability in at least in one developmental area. In order to reveal more about the condition we systematically reviewed movies that depict 2e individuals to reveal how they are portrayed. Eight movies were analyzed in depth. The selected movies were independently watched and encoded. As a result, a total of 54 codes were generated, which were combined under six themes, most themes having two categories (i.e., positive versus negative or strengths versus weaknesses). Despite being perceived more positively on the cognitive themes, they are portrayed mostly negatively on the socioemotional and behavioral themes. The movies conveyed significant messages about the educational lives and familial difficulties of these individuals.
