What will be an ideal response?


Neuroimaging has shown there are differences in the brains of some people who are gifted, but nurturing plays a role as well. The home environment and how much it accelerates development have an effect on leading to giftedness. Children may be more likely to be identified as gifted if parents modify homework to make it more challenging, increase opportunities for motivation and encourage accomplishment of goals.
