Challenging Academically Talented Students
“Federal law requires schools to provide an appropriate education to children with cognitive, physical, and emotional handicaps but is largely silent about the needs of kids at the upper end of the educational curve.”Kronholz, J. (2011). Challenging the gifted. EducationNext. Retrieved from http://educationnext.org/challenging-the-gifted/
n Fear of elitismn False assumption: The really
bright students will learn by themselves.
n Illinois, like most states, no longer funds gifted programs.
n Math and reading scores of the brightest students remain stagnant.
n Faster learners should not be kept waiting for others to catch up.
