In practice, such definitions are problematic because they are either too narrow, too wide, and involve an arbitrary cut-off. In two research reviews covering 135 articles, the majority based their samples on IQ or high performance. In the full review, no fewer than 70 criteria for giftedness were identified. An alternative strategy is to treat giftedness as a cluster concept consisting of eleven loosely connected categories. Empirical applications of this conceptualisation are presented covering both policy documents and teaching practices (Ball 1993). Establishing a new tradition through the use of a dynamic model of this kind has the potential to impact policy, research, and practice offering a way to include students who are gifted but not necessarily high achieving on standardised testing or IQ measures.<\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><hr \/><div>\u00a0<\/div><\/div><div class=\"abstract\"><p><strong>175 How do Educational Leaders at MOE in Oman Deal with Decision-Making Frameworks in Gifted Programmes?<\/strong><\/p><p>Amina\u00a0Almabsali<br \/>University of Glasgow<br \/>United Kingdom<\/p><div>Focused programmes for gifted education have evolved recently in Oman in response to various ministerial decrees.

The five sheaths comprise of Annamaya Kosh (food or gross-matter), Pranamaya Kosh (life or vital energy), Manomaya Kosh (perception and emotions), Vigyanmaya Kosh (intelligence or thought), and Anandmaya Kosh (bliss).
