Abstract. Here the author presents some the most frequent problems that appear in a number of science camps, workshops, and summer schools prepared in order to support gifted and talented students. Many such problems are typical and could be eliminated if organizations or teams involved in such programs spend certain amount of time and efforts in mutual communication and exchange of information and experience. Some problems are result of the lack of co-operation between teachers or experts interested to help students in certain field of science or technology and people with knowledge and experience in teenagers’ team work, group life and behavior, such as psychologists, pedagogs, trainers, etc.
Keywords. Gifted education, Science camps, Science education.
