Overexcitabilities are innate sensitivities and intensities and heightened responses to environmental stimuli. Dabrowski identified five overexcitabilities:

Intellectual
Imaginational
Emotional
Psychomotor
Sensual

Strategies for Promoting Motivation in Gifted Learners

Motivating gifted learners requires a shift in mindset. All students deserve to learn something new every day, regardless of standard benchmarks. The following strategies can help teachers motivate gifted students who struggle to engage in the classroom:

Provide choices to increase motivation.
Establish long- and short-term goals.
Give pre-tests to ensure students are encountering new material.
Teach students to be organized so they know what teachers expect of them.
Coach students by supporting strengths and modeling how to overcome weaknesses.
Vary instructional methods for different topics.

Respect Their Hard Work, Not Their Intelligence

When parents and teachers praise gifted students for their intelligence, they may be damaging motivation because these students do not struggle intellectually. It is more valuable to praise their hard work, which actually challenges them. Gifted learners often hear that they are smart, so they may not feel the need to go to any extra effort in a standard classroom. When teachers demonstrate how hard work and perseverance affects self-perception and motivation, students may begin to change their minds about school and how to engage it.
