- Summary:
-
This digest addresses the special needs of gifted urban minority students in the selection of postsecondary career and educational options. Noted is the frequent lack of family encouragement in this population toward higher education and career achievement. Suggestions are offered for teachers, students, counselors, administrators, and parents. These include: continuous gentle persuasion and provision of contact with successful minority professions (teachers); informing gifted minority students of educational options and working with parents to find sources of financial aid (counselors); serving as an advocate through contact with community service organizations, recognition of the achievements and potential of individual students, and rallying the school community behind able students (administrators). Noted are the possible effects of the student's aspirations on his/her position in the family. Contains 10 references. (DB)
