Abstract
The commentaries in this special issue as well as the articles they address contribute to the knowledge base about advanced learners, how they are identified, and how they are best served. In our Editors’ commentary, we have organized our thoughts following the same order in which the commentaries appear in the remainder of this issue. As the other commentary authors have done, in our discussion, we endeavor to provide our own perspective as well as a coalescing of ideas around the ideas addressed in each commentary.
Keywords gifted, ability grouping, identification, underrepresentation, economics
