Abstract

MAGIC proposes an identification process that taps into intellective and non-intellective components of giftedness in specific talent areas during adolescence. It takes into account the developmental phase and uneven pattern of academic performance of adolescents and creates challenges for them to demonstrate their giftedness. The model was developed in the Sℒld Institute for Research in the Behavioral Sciences in Israel It consists of three identification phases: group screening, individual assessment and simulation. The model was implemented in three high school residential programs for students gifted in science, music or visual arts. A follow-up of four classes of students who were identified by MAGIC in one program indicates that the tests in the group screeningphase may predict future grades at the end of high school To further validate the model, the follow-up of all programs described will continue and findings will be replicated in other programs as well.
