Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion 'Outliers', anyone reading it??

Yup, I would agree with that - he is definitely talking quantity of learning in a period, not kids in one group exceeding the level of other groups and then falling back below that level. Is that what you mean? The gains are within the same group, but the idea of having more material from which to pull over the summer for an upper class kids makes sense to me....

(don't hate me for suggesting the book!!) whether you agree with the author or not, it's a good one to have under your belt, right??
