The following was originally intended to be the second installment in a two-part series on the social and emotional needs of gifted students. Instead, it has become the second in a series. In this series, I have broken with my past practice of trying to only forward ideas that have emerged from published research findings.

The following is the fourth in a series of columns on meeting the social and emotional needs of gifted students where I provide a number of ideas that teachers, parents, and counselors can consider as they work on behalf of gifted students. Many of the ideas are equally applicable to gifted students and students of average ability.

Maximum academic achievement for gifted and talented students can only be accomplished when teachers are given the tools, support, and training needed to strengthen instructional skills and develop knowledge of the social and emotional needs of the students they serve (Feldhusen, 1997). Providing meaningful professional development to develop or enhance these skills is a challenge for administrators responsible for the planning and implementation of training experiences for teachers of gifted students.

The following is the third column in a series on meeting the social and emotional needs of gifted students.

Some of the ideas are reasonably well researched, while others are rooted in my professional experiences.

Welcome to the third column focusing on the social and emotional needs of gifted students. As I indicated in the first column, I have asked a friend, Dr. Sal Mendaglio from the University of Calgary, to share some of his thoughts and experiences counseling gifted students. Sal has been working on the topic of sensitivity for some time. Having talked at length with him about his ideas, I felt that this column would be an ideal vehicle for him to put forth his ideas. Enjoy.

Published Research

Yarning as a research method has its grounding as an Aboriginal culturally specified process. Significant to the Research Yarn is relationality, however; this is a missing feature of published research findings. This article aims to address this. The research question was, what can an analysis of Social and Family Yarning tell us about relationality that underpins a Research Yarn. Participant recruitment occurred using convenience sampling, and data collection involved Yarning method. Five steps of data analysis occurred featuring Collaborative Yarning and Mapping. Commonality existed between researcher and participants through predominantly experiences of being a part of Aboriginal community, via Aboriginal organisations and Country. This suggests shared explicit and tacit knowledge and generation of thick data. Researchers should report on their experience with Yarning, the types of Yarning they are using, and the relationality generated from the Social, Family and Research Yarn.

This chapter focuses on early childhood, the social and emotional needs of children and their families, use of technology, and use of children's literature in both print form and through digital means. Readers will learn about a service project called Students Serving Moms. Through this service project, pre-service teachers, or education majors, from a teacher preparation program alongside other college students at the university, work with families in the community. This relational service project continued in spite of restrictions from the pandemic due to the members of Students Serving Moms embracing change and using virtual means to work with the children of all abilities and ages in efforts to meet the social and emotional needs of the children. This chapter will benefit teacher educators who may want to replicate this service project at their institutions whether virtually or through face-to-face means. Pre-service teachers will also benefit from reading this chapter as they consider ways they can create connections with children through developmentally appropriate practices.

Solution Focused

This chapter reviews strategies for working with students who are gifted. It stresses that gifted students can be a vulnerable population because, without proper academic, social, and emotional support, they may not reach high levels of achievement and recognize their potential in school and beyond. Also, because gifted students’ social and emotional needs are often unrecognized and unmet, it is important for counselors to familiarize themselves with the characteristics associated with giftedness. The chapter describes the types of challenges that may be faced by gifted students, including perfectionism, underachievement, motivation, and multipotentiality. It also suggests counseling strategies to address these concerns such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, career counseling, and group counseling.
