Experience teaching Shakespeare’s Macbeth to students shows it’s also about above-average intelligence, creativity and perseverance
In 1968/69, I taught at a “selective/regional” New South Wales public high school for “gifted” kids grades 8 to 12.
Teaching literature to senior high school students involves teaching novels, poetry and drama at three levels: a literal level , an inferential level and a critical level I asked them what the options were for interpretations of the scene in Act 2 Scene 1 of the play where Duncan, the king of Scotland, was visiting Lord Macbeth’s castle and sleeping in his chambers.
I realised I would be wasting my breath trying to convince him that these kids approached literature at this level every day. Beyond that, Renzulli suggests there is more than one type of of giftedness, i.e. there is “schoolhouse giftedness” and “creative-productive giftedness.”“Creative-productive giftedness,” on the other hand, describes those aspects of human activity and involvement where a premium is placed on the development of original thoughts, material and products.
