Abstract :The purpose of this analytical review was to investigate the uses of the TASC model to teach gifted students and develop their creativity. The researcher decided to select studies of the TASC model, which were not used by Maker, Alhusaini, Zimmerman, Pease, Schiever, and Whitford insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2014); in the Saudi project. The studies included 30 out of 367 studies that were chosen for the Saudi project. Out of the 30 studies, the researcher selected 15, which he identified as school-based projects in which the TASC model was specifically used or described in teaching. The researcher also added six books that were written by Belle Wallace and colleagues. All of the reviewed publications suggested that the TASC model has been an effective, useful, and practical method with all students from different grade levels and of different abilities insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(especially with those who were gifted);, as well as in all different content areas, to teach students and develop their creativity. The researcher identified limitations across the reviewed studies and publications, such as omissions of data collection procedures, data analysis processes, and lack of information about the participants as well as the interventions. Also, most of the studies provided qualitative results with no further discussion or explanation. More high quality research is needed to improve the scholarly conversation around this model.
