This three-year project aims to produce and publicize four separate studies examining the impact of current education policies and practices on cognitively gifted students. Employing only the soundest and most rigorous research methods, the studies will make a long-term contribution to the literature in the field, while providing a timely analysis for Congress as it works to reauthorize the landmark No Child Left Behind Act over the next several years.
