- Pointing out there is no single, clear cut definition of gifted, please make references with Renzulli, Gardner and Sternberg’s gifted model as example, to explain “scores” both academic achievement and IQ test shouldn’t be the only indicator when identifying gifted.
- Further explain some gifted characteristics such as underachievement and perfectionism can impact teacher rating scales and academic grades
- Factors such as limited English proficiency, low socio-economic status, or learning disabilities (e.g. dyslexia and ADHD) can impact ability test scores.
- Ability and achievement test scores may not be correlated.
- Please find are there any country has the regulations state that no single criterion shall be used in determining students who qualify for, or are denied access to programs for the gifted. (maybe in Australia, but I’m not sure) and why do they do that, what are the consequences for that?
