NCLB
Posted by Angie on July 17, 2007 in Gifted Education |
It’s common knowledge with those in the field of educating the gifted, that the No Child Left Behind laws have been a detriment to educating this unique population. NCLB is great at meeting the needs of those at, just below or just above the standards laid out but those very low or very high are ‘left behind’. I was glad to see that our researchers are looking into this perception to see if it can stand up under scrutiny. The short article has links to the actual 41 page study. http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/NCLB-ActII/2007/07/bubble_kids_benefit.html
