Funny coincidence, JBDad, I just logged on to ask folks for their favorite articles on acceleration.

We are going into a meeting with our local school next week and would like to give them a decent sample of the most lucid current thinking. We plan to focus on two key themes: (1) the social-emotional benefits of acceleration, where it's indicated; and (2) the perils to work ethic/learning enthusiasm where acceleration is denied.

I've done some reading here, at Hoagies, and at U. Iowa, but still feel as though I'm scraping the surface. It would be great to hear about articles others have found to be especially clear and objective.

Thanks.
