Linda Kreger Silverman, Ph.D., and Bobbie Gilman, MS. The Gifted Development Center Assessing Gifts and Challenges in the Whole Child—Seeing twice-exceptionality through the lens of development and asynchrony “Understanding the Implications for Gifted Children at School, in the Home, and across the Lifespan” Quality assessment is essential for the gifted child. It can determine both the educational needs and the right options to appropriately challenge, but not overwhelm, the child. It must be done with precision and with the needs of the gifted in mind. Gifted Development Center testers, working together for many years with this particular population, have been able to hone their skills to the level of leading the field of gifted assessment.
