arguments changed your mind?

The
Origins and Ends of Giftedness by Ellen Winner
Five issues about giftedness are discussed with reference to gifted
children (including child prodigies) and autistic/retarded savants. First,
the origins and causes of giftedness are explored. The view that giftedness
is entirely a product of training is critiqued, and it is argued that there
is indirect evidence for atypical brain organization and innate talent in
gifted children: many gifted children and savants have enhanced
right-hemisphere development, concomitant language-related difficulties, and
auto-immune disorders. Intense intrinsic motivation, particular social and
emotional difficulties, evidence for the often uneven cognitive profiles of
such children, and the tenuous relationship between childhood giftedness and
"big-C," or "domain" creativity in adulthood is discussed... (requires

Reflections
from Julian Stanley: Supplementing the Education of Children with
Exceptional Mathematical or Verbal Reasoning Ability
We decry a youth's becoming a full-time college student, especially a
residential one, before about age 16. It is neither necessary nor
educationally desirable for all but a tiny number of intellectually
brilliant students to do so. We want the brightest to get a broad, deep
education. With 34 Advanced Placement Program exams available, there is no
need to rush into college full-time. Yet there is an innovative, relatively
new exception...
Research
Synthesis by Karen B. Rogers
Rogers updates (1999) her 1991 research synthesis regarding gifted
education provisions...
 | Gifted students are significantly more likely to retain science and
mathematics content accurately when taught 2-3 times faster than "normal"
class pace. |
 | Gifted students are significantly more likely to forget or mislearn
science and mathematics content when they must drill and review it more than
2-3 times |
 | Gifted students perform significantly more highly when the majority of
their time is spent in true peer interactions (academic core areas only) |
