One of the difficulties in identifying gifted people from underrepresented populations is the availability and accessibility of assessment tools.
Question Description
Pick ONE assessment method (some are described in your textbook) and describe it to your classmates.Clearly evaluate the assessment tool’s “accessibility” in terms of identifying giftedness in underserved populations, and then offer suggestions for improving the accessibility. You may also look for journal articles that can provide insight on this as well.
One example: Identifying giftedness using a written test of intelligence may not be appropriate for blind children. Modifications to make such a test accessible may include reading the test aloud, or offering it in Braille.
