An excellent gifted resource!

This is much-needed addition to the information available on gifted young people and how we can assist them in maximizing their potential. All too often, it's assumed that bright children will be fine on their own. However, without appropriate nurturing and opportunties, their talents and abilities will often fall by the wayside. This book, and the companion website www.GeniusDenied.com, provide information to empower parents, educators, and other citizens to make a positive difference on behalf of our nation's brightest young people. The stories of young people in this book are compelling, and the points made by experts who work with the population are sound. I HIGHLY recommend this book.

An invaluable resource

Genius Denied is an exceptional resource for educators, administrators, professionals, and parents of gifted and talented students. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in making a positive difference in the lives of gifted youth. It not only addresses the challenges that the gifted population faces in our education system today, but it also gives practical suggestions as to what one can do to effect change in gifted and talented education across the nation.

Care about Gifted Students? - Don't Miss This One!!!

As a teacher of gifted students, I am very familiar with the unique challenges inherent to meeting the needs of bright students. Genius Denied and the companion website www.GeniusDenied.com helped me to better understand the options available to me as a teacher. Genius Denied is a great balance of story and practical solutions. It really made me think about what kind of teacher I want to be. I thought I was doing the right thing when it came to my gifted students and I now see that there is so much more I could be doing, and that it isn?t going to take a lot of time or money! I can't recommend this book enough. It is a must read for teacher, parents and students.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

This is a very resourceful book for parents and educators that would like more information on how to meet the unique needs of gifted youth. Jan and Bob Davidson eloquently describe the ?quiet crisis? in our schools today and offer realistic suggestions to support and challenge gifted students. A must read!


A must-read

This is not only a must-read for parents and educators, but for anyone interested in the state of our nation?s education system. Current policies and programs ensure that no child will be left behind, yet gifted and talented students are commonly underchallenged, underachieving, and, quite honestly, ignored. Genius Denied is a call to action and offers specific steps we can all take to truly meet the needs of every student. The Genius Denied website compliments the book with a state database, online searchable resource guide, discussion forums, and ?how you can help? information. Genius denied is informative, moving, and a fascinating look at what must be done to nurture intellectual development.
