Abstract

In the era of digital transformation, addressing the needs of intellectually excellent students within special groups involves a comprehensive approach to nurturing and enhancing their emotional and social stability skills. This endeavor encompasses five key areas: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, building relationships, and responsible decision-making. Specifically tailored for students with an intellectual intelligence quotient exceeding 130, the identification process unfolds in three stages: nomination, formal selection, and diagnosis. Guiding the care and development of emotional and social stability skills for intellectually excellent individuals involves five strategic approaches. First and foremost is the creation of an environment conducive to skill development. This is coupled with the promotion of emotional management skills, fostering effective communication, and supporting continuous learning. Additionally, the provision of opportunities for recreational activities and play is crucial for their holistic growth and future development. Emphasis is placed on the cultivation of a supportive environment to fortify emotional and social security skills in the lives of these intellectually excellent students. By prioritizing the creation of such an atmosphere, alongside the promotion of emotional management, effective communication, and collaborative teamwork, a foundation is laid for the enhancement and development of vital emotional and social skills. This holistic approach ensures that intellectually excellent students not only thrive in their current capacities but also prepare for future challenges and opportunities.
