The study, “Do Students in Gifted Programs Perform Better? Linking Gifted Program Participants to Achievement and Nonachievement Outcomes,” is slated to be published in May 2021 in the journal of Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis. Related: Gifted classes may not help talented students move ahead faster “It seems like Black students benefit less than white students and that high income students benefit the most.” “What was most concerning to me was that even this small benefit wasn’t equally distributed across all students subgroups,” said Christopher Redding, an assistant professor at the University of Florida and one of the study’s co-authors. Asian children, by contrast, posted larger gains in math after joining a gifted program. Similarly, low-income students of all races tended not to reap the academic gains that their wealthier peers did. For example, teachers reported no difference in how hard students worked, how much they participated in discussions or how much they paid attention and listened in class.īlack students didn’t experience even the small reading gains that their white peers did in gifted programs, showing zero difference after receiving gifted services, on average. No improvements were detected in how engaged or motivated students were in school after joining a gifted program. The boost to math achievement from gifted instruction was much smaller, about a third of that size. Students’ reading scores were only slightly higher after receiving gifted instruction, moving from 78th to 80th percentile in reading on a national yardstick. Researchers compared student performance before and after participating in a gifted program. Others get assigned as late as fifth grade. Some are labeled as gifted during that first kindergarten year. In school systems that offer gifted programs, children generally begin their schooling in a regular kindergarten classroom with children of mixed abilities. Researchers analyzed the records of about 1,300 students, drawn from a nationally representative sample of children across the country, who started kindergarten in 2010 and participated in a gifted program for at least one year during their elementary school years through fifth grade. Only 4 percent of Black children and 5 percent of Hispanic children are in gifted programs compared with 8 percent of white and 13 percent of Asian children, according to the most recent federal figures.Īgainst this political backdrop, a new study raises big questions about whether gifted education benefits the kids who are lucky enough to be in it. Others are seeking ways to increase the number of Black and Hispanic students. Some progressives have proposed eliminating gifted programs altogether. student population, it’s disturbing that Black and Hispanic children are rarely chosen for them. Though gifted programs touch only 3.3 million school children, about 7 percent of the U.S. Gifted education is often a flash point in school desegregation debates in large cities, these programs often operate as an essentially separate school system, dominated by white and Asian children. ![]()

Tampa Bay only created 1.54 expected goals in all situations, which means Kuemper allowed 1.46 goals above expected in this game alone. When you look at the underlying numbers, it's even worse. Darcy Kuemper faced just 23 shots in three-plus periods of hockey, and he allowed three goals. That's because the one area of concern for Colorado in this game was between the pipes. Instead, the Avs needed overtime, and one bounce the other way could have put them in a 1-0 hole to start this series. Concern about Kuemperįrom the numbers laid out above, as well as the total shot count, one would think Colorado ran Tampa Bay out of the building. The Lightning are a resilient team - you don't win two straight Stanley Cups without that quality - but they need a much better effort in Game 2 to get this series tied heading back to Tampa. Meanwhile, the Avs' penalty kill unit completely silenced a lethal Lightning man advantage on all three opportunities. Colorado converted on one of its three power plays and got some quality chances on the other two. When it comes to special teams, the Avalanche had the edge there, too. At five-on-five, Colorado generated 2.60 expected goals to Tampa Bay's 1.05, per Natural Stat Trick. No matter how you slice it, the Avs took it to the back-to-back champs in the opening game. The Avalanche were clearly the better team in Game 1. The list of teams that can make the Lightning look like they are in over their heads is very short. Before then, here are a few takeaways from Colorado's Game 1 victory. Tampa Bay will try to even up the series in Game 2, which is set for 8:00 p.m. ![]() ![]() ![]() I like the theme options as well I bet you’ll stumble upon something in the Themes menu that catches your eye.Īlfred is free to download and use. ![]() Users can trim down repetitive manual tasks by creating automated workflows to open apps, search the web, run terminal commands, and more.

It is light years better and easier than using WebMin. If you think that being forced to install things via command lines in Terminal is primitive and idiotic and should have been abandoned in 80's, then you'll like Navicat. Would be nice if I could see the results on the same window somehow. So, whenever I need to compare results of two or more queries, I find myself opening multiple tabs and going back and forth between them. Also, older results will disappear as soon as you edit the SQL or want to type in something new. The query tool does process multiple SQL commands but will return results for only the last. Not sure what you lose, but probably implies they devote less resources to the Mac side of their business. The Mac version, for some reason, trails one point behind the Windows/Linux version. Also, there is something unintuitive about the whole process because I find myself having to resort to the mouse when adding stuff: Tabbing will not get you to all editable fields. When in table design, you can't duplicate rows. I frequently find myself typing up the SQL in a text editor like TextMate and pasting it into Navicat. The GUI for editing triggers and stored procedures is non-intuitive. ![]() ![]() Very frustrating if you have several or more query tabs open!
