Conclusions:By definitions, GT kids are different.
They won’t just “get it anyway.”
If instruction isn’t on their level, they might never learn how to respond when they are faced with an academic challenge (underachievement
and/or perfectionism)
Parents, teachers, and school counselors with an understanding of giftedness can make a huge
difference in these students’ lives.
