We Recruit Them, But Then What? The Educational and Psychological Experiences of Academically Talented Undergraduates

Abstract: As universities actively compete for the best and brightest students, educators may wonder about the nature of these gifted students and what awaits them in college. Yet, research on the programs and opportunities provided for talented undergraduates at institutions of higher education is limited, leaving researchers to question what universities are doing for bright students. The purpose of this review is to examine recent research on academically talented undergraduates, both on the nature of the undergradua… Show more

“…As mentioned, Rinn and Plucker (2004) note that this specific population is of special interest to higher educational institutions and their attempts to improve "honors", "early entrance", and "personal counseling" programs for intelligent young adults. If a relationship exists between PWB and intelligence, it would suggest the need for these services to be specialized to such students' unique PWB.…”

“…The purpose of the study was to explore the relationship between these dimensions of well-being and intelligence in incoming college students. Rinn and Plucker (2004) noted that further study of young adults of high ability is of special interest to higher educational institutions and their attempts to improve both scholastic and non-scholastic opportunities. This age marks the beginning of a new milestone in a person's development, a transition out of childhood and into adulthood.…”

“…Peers hebben invloed op zowel de ontwikkeling van waarden en houdingen als op studievoortgang en volharding (Eggens, 2011;Pascarella & Terenzini, 2005). Studenten zoeken identificatie en verbondenheid bij leeftijdgenoten die in belangrijk opzicht op hen lijken en van wie ze denken dat ze hun opvattingen delen (Rinn & Plucker, 2004). Zowel sociale als academische integratie zijn belangrijk voor het behalen van studiesucces (Tinto, 1987).…”

“…De didactiek en de onderwijsaanpak van docenten in het onderwijs aan getalenteerde en gemotiveerde studenten staan hierbij centraal. Zeker gezien de toename van het aantal honoursprogramma's is er nog opmerkelijk weinig onderzoek gedaan naar de meerwaarde van dit type onderwijs en naar hoe aan talentvolle studenten gedoceerd moet worden (Clark, 2000;Rinn & Plucker, 2004). De praktische relevantie van deze studie ligt in het ontwikkelen van kennis, enerzijds voor het opzetten en verbeteren van talentgericht doceren in het hoger onderwijs en anderzijds ter bevordering van het professionaliseren van docenten die onderwijs verzorgen in deze speciale programma's.…”
