Strategies for gifted second language learners.
Abstract
Gifted second language learners deserve an optimal learning environment in which to develop talent. Direct grammar instruction capitalizes on the strengths of high-ability students allowing them to form their understanding of the structure of the language and progress rapidly toward communicative competence. Direct instruction of communication strategies can provide the tools that will enable them to develop an effective interlanguage. Gifted and talented students arrive at the classroom with prior skills that must be utilized to enhance their learning experience in meaningful ways.
