Abstract
Pointing out the nature and scope of talent loss among low socioeconomic and minority group members, the author identifies and explores some of the issues in the retrieval of talent potential. Strategies are suggested for identifying and maximizing the development of this unidentified and understimulated segment of our school population. Identification procedures are based on a broadened conception of talent, and the author discusses some new, more appropriate instruments as well as more extensive uses of existing instruments such as tests of creativity. Suggestions for developing talent potential are discussed in terms of teacher characteristics and curricular relevancy.
