Abstract

Talent is an international research topic, but the definition of talent, how to spot talent and measurements of talent development are discussed. This study in talent in Danish vocational educations is based on a documentary study analyses the development of policy. It shows that three phases can be identified where the definition of talent change. Based on five reports, the knowledge of talent is analysed using the categories definition of talent, criteria in spotting talent, domains, developments of talent. It is concluded that projects and research interest in the qualitative based studies are changing over time, and since different terms are used, a comparison is complicated. However, teaching, pedagogic and didactic seems as important for talents and talent development as for other groups of students
