I was wondering if you had talked to your school about on line learning? I wish I could have a copy of that recorded. I wonder how this is working in schools with gifted kids? Anybody?

I've thought that since my school is wireless in all the classrooms maybe somehow in the future I could provide a laptop and let him accelorate in Math. I feel like my ds9 needs a bit more maturity to do this or he will be too high maintance for the teachers. Ex. I tried to get him to correspond with the teacher with mail and he was not so interested as he used up his brain power/attention for that time on the writing course. (He also does not like to talk on the phone.) I thought he did well in the course and learned alot about online learning, time management and writing.
