- ccvannorman 10y agoI think it's fair to use the word gifted although it's loaded and we should have better words. That said, his point is that while you are having good ideas, it's important to account for most students in your ideal system not having your aptitude--one big challenge in education is "how do you address the bell curve of aptitude" without going as slow as the slowest, or leaving anyone behind, or segregating classes. Education gets pretty nitty gritty when you dig into real world changes! Good article, education is ripe for disruption especially in 3rd worlds.
