We asked “Why Gifted Education?”
Quest Academy is the only elementary school in the US that teaches an integrated K-8 Computer Science & Artificial Intelligenge (CSAI) curriculum, developed in conjunction with Microsoft. Our teachers and students use AI tools to process graphics, analyze sentiment and mine data.
We “asked” a popular AI search engine (Chat GPT) “Why Should Parents Consider Gifted Education?” Here is the AI answer to our question:
Why Should Parents Consider Gifted Education?
Gifted education programs are designed to provide educational opportunities that are tailored to the unique needs of gifted and talented students. These programs can help students to achieve their full academic potential, develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and foster their creativity and curiosity. Additionally, gifted education programs can provide opportunities for students to interact with other gifted and talented peers, which can be beneficial for their social and emotional development.
For Parents, Gifted Education can provide a good fit for their child’s interest and abilities, leading to increases in self-esteem and motivation. Gifted education programs can help students, who are academically advanced, to be challenged and engaged in their learning, reducing the risk of boredom, disengagement, and underachievement.
For these reasons, parents should consider Gifted Education programs for their children, if their children show advanced abilities and interests in specific subjects, talents or skills.
