關於gifted的話題,說實話,我看了 MMXIAO的貼覺得很糊塗。為什麽呢?我覺得MMXIAO有點把 gifted和 highly gifted給搞混了。
有人說當年(擴招以前)考上大學的,IQ都有個120以上,我覺得有點道理。我們當年高考,我爹給我算過考上大專以上是1:10,我們那裏預考還要刷一大批,考上本科的基本上就是要百裏挑一,如果球媽的 IQ 140是 2百多人選一,那麽考上本科基本上是IQ都有個120以上。
所以壇子裏的說 130普通人,我覺得不奇怪,壇子裏孩子們人人gifted也不奇怪,甚至highly gifted(>140) 也不奇怪。
但是 要profoundly gifted(>170)就不是常見的了。而壇子裏的家長們要探索的是自己的娃是不是profoundly gifted,因為自己就是一gifted的“普通人”嘛:)這樣,MMXIAO的帖子就是有很借鑒。如果大家要深入了解,網上有很多資源。
不過教育profoundly gifted(>170)的孩子不是件輕鬆的事,常常是一個big burden。
"The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this:
A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.
To him...
a touch is a blow,
a sound is a noise,
a misfortune is a tragedy,
a joy is an ecstasy,
a friend is a lover,
a lover is a god,
and failure is death.
Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create - - - so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating."
-Pearl Buck-
