Therefore, interdisciplinarity stands as a necessity in approaching its understanding and definition. In the previous six conferences, through interdisciplinary exchanges, we have enriched our knowledge and skills about giftedness and the gifted. This year&#8217;s conference theme places interdisciplinary exchanges at the forefront, considering the necessity of primarily changing educational practices and approaches to the gifted. STEAM programs and the advancing development of artificial intelligence accelerate the need for changes in educating the gifted and pose a challenge in predicting the future development of young generations. Simultaneously, in the contemporary world of artificial intelligence and technological advancement, the interaction between humans and machines will require the support of the gifted.<\/p>\n<p>Hoping that interdisciplinary exchanges will advance and guide further research and understanding of giftedness, we invite you to this year&#8217;s conference.<\/p>\n<p>We sincerely hope that you will recognise your interest in joining us!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Participants<\/strong>: The conference is intended for educators, teachers, instructors, specialists, defectologists, doctors, public services employees, administrations and management, media workers, students, and all others who encounter and work with gifted children, youth, and adults and their families, from both domestic and international settings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conference languages<\/strong>: Serbian, regional languages, and English.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The conference will be accredited <\/strong>as a form of professional development for employees in educational institutions in the Republic of Serbia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We invite you to apply for participation in the Conference <\/strong>in the form of an oral presentation, poster presentation, or workshop, or to participate as an attendee, without a presentation.<\/p>\n<p>You can submit<strong> your presentations <\/strong>on one of the following sub-themes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Interdisciplinary perspectives on giftedness<\/li>\n<li>Interdisciplinarity in identifying giftedness<\/li>\n<li>Interdisciplinarity in the methodology of working with the gifted<\/li>\n<li>Interdisciplinary approach in providing support for giftedness development<\/li>\n<li>Giftedness and interdisciplinarity<\/li>\n<li>Interdisciplinarity in education<\/li>\n<li>STEAM programs and methods<\/li>\n<li>Gifted individuals and artificial intelligence<\/li>\n<li>Institutional forms of support for giftedness<\/li>\n<li>International cooperation in the field of giftedness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Important dates:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211;
