Abstract

In this paper, the purpose and rationale of talent search is presented, followed by a discussion of the phenomenon of talent search. Talent search includes three important components: diagnosis and evaluation of domains and levels of talent; educational placement and guidance; and talent development opportunities, including summer programs, distance learning programs, contests, competitions, and other related events. There is a solid research base that supports the validity of the talent search identification protocol, the success of students in accelerative programs and the benefits of participation. Talent search has had an effect on general education, particularly with influencing ideas about students' readiness for learning and the timing and pace of instruction. Talent search programs also need to take steps to ensure greater access, particularly to economically disadvantaged students.
