Catalysts and Deterrents for STEAM Talent Development of Students from Economically-Disadvantaged Families Through Specialized STEAM Talent Residential High Schools

“…Through these themes, four catalysts for talent development emerged and supported findings from previous studies: (1) Family’s provision of rich learning environment when young (Bloom, 1985; Cho & Campbell, 2011; Cho & Lin, 2011; Subotnik et al, 2011) (2) external acknowledgements (Nokelainen et al, 2007); (3) intellectual peers at SSTRHS (Almarode et al, 2014; Finn & Northern, 2018); and (4) research experiences at SSTRHS (Almarode et al, 2014). Parents’ contributions to talent development were limited to the early childhood period.…”

“…Several studies (Bloom, 1985; Briggs and Renzulli, 2009; Gottfried and Gottfried, 1996) also summarized catalysts for transformation in terms of their personal and environmental characteristics. Reported are important catalysts for talent development: personal characteristics such as passion, grit, interest, achievement, and creativity (Cho & Lin, 2011; Gagné, 2005; Subotnik et al, 2011); instruction and curriculum based opportunities and competitions (Borland and Wright, 1994; Campbell and Walberg, 2010; Yang et al, 2021); and important people in their lives, such as parents (Cho & Lin, 2011; Nokelainen et al, 2007); and motivated and gifted peers, and certain teacher characteristics (Cho & Campbell, 2011). Especially, at the middle stage of talent development, gifted students’ learning gains result from complex, advanced, and meaningful content provided by a knowledgeable teacher through high-quality curricula and instruction at an appropriate pace with scaffolding techniques and feedback (Park, 2005; Subotnik et al, 2011; Tomlinson & Jarvis, 2014).…”

Crystallization control of SrCO3 nanostructure in imidazolium-based temperature ionic liquids

“…Spherical mesoporous TiO 2 and gold nanoparticles have been prepared with RILs as templates [7]. Moreover, RILs are a suitable medium for the preparation and stabilization of transition-metal nanoparticles [8,9]. SrCO 3 is one of the biominerals that widely exist in nature.…”
