That was my experience as well in the 90's. The biggest difference was the behavior of the students, which allowed the class to move at a faster pace. Gifted and Talented was certainly a misnomer, but the environment that behavior enabled was a benefit to everyone in the classroom across all levels of gifts and talents.
- empressplay 4y agoThis was also my experience in the early 90s, which was frustrating (at the time) because in the 1980s admission was based on IQ tests and in those programs we did a lot of cool things! (computer programming, robotics, rockets, chemistry, biology etc. etc.) High-achieving students could skip grades if they wanted to, but the program itself wasn't just doing more of the same, and I valued that.
