Common Myths about of GT Students
Common Myths about of GT Students
Gifted students do not need help. If they are really gifted they can manage on their own.
Gifted students are a homogenous group, all high achievers.
Gifted students have fewer problems than others because their intelligence and abilities somehow exempt them form the hassles of daily life.
The future of the gifted student is assured: a world of opportunities awaits.
Gifted students are self-directed; they know where they are heading.
The social and emotional development of the gifted student is at the same level as his or her intellectual development.
Gifted students are nerds and social isolates.
