3.6.9 Developing Essential Skills such as Self-Insight, Self-Management and Creative Thinking

In this session we focus on developing the important skills of self-insight, self-management, motivation, creative thinking, analytical thinking, critical thinking, ICT skills, communication skills, and working together in education. We want to support the process of developing these skills; therefore, we have created a tool that can be used to guide and counsel gifted children and their teachers/supervisors to set and achieve goals, execute plans, choose an approach, and follow their development. The tool, “Development Goals & Skills,” has been extensively evaluated, is effective, and is used by numerous students.
