Product Description
Volume II provides an extensive review of the wealth of research on the academic acceleration of gifted students so that discussion and decision-making about acceleration can be based on evidence rather than on myths, misconceptions, or personal bias. It is often difficult to make strong generalizations about research in education since, so often, scholars present contradictory findings. In fact, many educational interventions have been implemented with a flimsy research basis or no research basis at all. Acceleration stands as a striking exception to the rule.
