 Giriş: Bu çalışmada Covid-19 salgını sürecinde özel yetenekli öğrencilerin durumunun öğrenci, öğretmen ve veli bakış açıları ile ortaya koyulması amaçlanmaktadır. Salgın ile birlikte değişen eğitim faaliyetlerinin etkilediği özel gereksinimli gruptan biri olan özel yeteneklilerde sürecin incelenmesi gerekmektedir. Özel yeteneklilerin salgın sürecindeki durumunun onların özellikleri temelinde değerlendirilmesi önem taşımaktadır. Yöntem: Çalışma nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden durum çalışması deseni şeklinde tasarlanmıştır. Katılımcılar özel yetenek tanısı almış beş öğrenci, özel yetenekli çocuğa sahip beş veli ve özel yeteneklilerin eğitimi alanında çalışan beş öğretmenden oluşmaktadır. Araştırma verileri yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme ve doküman incelemeleri yoluyla toplanmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında toplanan tüm veriler için tümevarımsal yaklaşım ile içerik analizi yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Veriler süreci anlamlandırma, yaşamı akademik ve sosyal şekillendirme ve gelecek planları temalarını içeren üç başlık altında değerlendirilmiştir. Anlamlandırma teması altında özel yeteneklilerin süreci anlama ve uyum sağlama ile ilgili deneyimleri incelenmiştir. Yaşamı şekillendirme teması altında öğrencilerin eğitimlerini devam ettirme durumları ile sosyal yaşamlarına ilişkin paylaşımları değerlendirilmiştir. Salgın sürecinin beraberinde getirdiği yaşam biçimleri ile öğrencilerin geleceğe ilişkin planları ele alınmıştır. Tartışma: Araştırma bulguları özel yeteneklilerin sahip oldukları becerileri salgın süreciyle ortaya çıkan krizi fırsata dönüştürmede kullanabildiklerini göstermiştir. Bununla birlikte bulgular özel yeteneklilere yönelik eğitim programlarının farklılaştırılması gerekliliğini destekleyici niteliktedir.
