on Twitter and updates on Facebook could possibly help change the world of
gifted education, think again. Social networking among gifted advocates is at
an all-time high and continues to grow. Five years ago, it would have been hard
to imagine educators and parents of gifted students from across the world
gathering weekly on Twitter to share resources, insights and inspiration. Yet,
now it’s a reality. More than 1,000 tweets are devoted to Global #gtchat (a
Twitter chat dedicated to gifted and talented issues) each and every week. Click here to read more of this article posted by the Davidson Institute for Talent Development.
