Abstract
Digital technologies and especially using artificial intelligence (AI) in personalized learning offer new perspectives for the education of gifted students, focused on the variability of manifestations and trajectories of their giftedness development. The objective of this study was to analyze and summarize new scientific data on the specific educational needs of intellectually gifted students and the potential for effectively using new digital technologies to support and stimulate their interest in learning and improve their achievements. Thirty-one articles were assessed on this topic. The relevance of this study stems from the intensive implementation of digitalization in school education of various countries over the past five years and the significant growth in scientific publications about the impact of new technologies on gifted education. AI researches offer new insights into effective support for both successful gifted students and also for students with double exceptionality, characterized by both high intellectual abilities and various developmental disabilities, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD) or autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Using AI can help overcome these students' limitations and also promote the development of their higher-order thinking skills, critical or problem-solving thinking, and progress social interaction skills. The most advanced form of learning adaptation is considered personalization, in which goals, content, pace, and methods are selected based on the individual needs, preferences, and interests of each student, who is directly involved in planning and self-assessing their learning activities. Personalized education is understood as a technology-based, student-centered process that recognizes the uniqueness of each student and adapts the goals, content, pace, and methods of learning to their specific needs, while supporting student choice and reflection. Personalized learning facilitates collaboration between students and teachers in the joint definition and development of learning plans. The success of these technologies depends on the professional training of teachers.
