Description
The Naglieri NonVerbal Ability Test is a nonverbal measure of general ability that does not rely on language, yet predicts scholastic success. Learn what the NNAT2 measures and how to use it for GT identification. Establishing that students identified on nonverbal instruments possess innate ability underscores the process. The NNAT2 research and ways to use the scores for programming, classroom instruction, and training are discussed. Additionally, discuss how school administrators and teachers of the gifted, especially gifted minority children, can use the NNAT to identify more minority children and improve academic performance for all students.
