TALENT DEVELOPMENT AT THE BUDAPEST UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY AND ECONOMICS
Abstract
The talent development of gifted young people youth has been evaluated differently in Hungary and internationally during the last decades. Different sources in psychology and pedagogy reveal that professionals have undertaken continuous efforts in Hungary in all school types in this field, and as a result, the number of students with scholarships has increased at colleges/universities. Much emphasis has been put on talent development also in the case of secondary schools. Before describing the work undertaken by the cooperation of the Ergonomics and Psychology and An-Inorganic Chemistry Departments Chairs at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics Technical University, let us briefly review the current definition of outstanding talent, creativity and talent development.
