Abstract: A Cope-and-Grow Model of affective curriculum for talent development is introduced based on a dual process theory of expanding one’s personal agency and horizon (Grow) while dealing with stressful events and negative emotions (Cope). Based on research, the Model specifies four stages of talent development and three contextual situations that have ramifications for issues related to talent development and affective growth. It distinguishes between enactive and reflective aspects of growing and coping experiences, and identifies tools and resources (experiential, social, and media) for both. Significance of the Model will be discussed in terms of promoting a more personalized agenda of talent development. Practicality of the Model will also be discussed in terms of the ease of implementation and specific procedures.
