Group Roles and the Gifted Child.

Willings, David

Roeper Review, v5 n3 p18-20 Feb 1983

Gifted students can perform a variety of roles in groups, and it is important for career choice and satisfaction that the role chosen be a natural one. Gifted students may function best and contribute most in the role of exemplar or eccentric rather than in more traditionally conceived leadership roles. (CL)
