About this Item

"This book is based on a shared vision that my colleagues in The Center for Talent Development at the University of Connecticut and I have had for a number of years. This vision is also embraced by thousands of teachers and administrators with whom we have worked in academic programs and summer institutes that date back to the early 1970s. Simply stated, this vision us that schools are places for talent development. Academic achievement is, indeed, an important of the vision and the model for school improvement described in this book; ghowever, we believe a focus on talent development places the need for improved academic achievement into a larger perspective about the goals of education. The things that have made our nation great and or society one of the most productive in the world are manifestations of talent development at all levels of human productivity. From the creators and inventors of new ideas, products, and art forms, to the vast array of people who manufacture, advertise, and market the creations that improve and enrich our lives, there are levels of excellence and quality that contribute to our standard of living and way of life."
