Underachieving Gifted Students: Intervention Programs That Work.

Fehrenbach, Carolyn R.

Roeper Review, v16 n2 p88-90 Dec 1993

This article reviews the causes of underachievement in gifted students and discusses two successful intervention programs, a secondary program with individualized goals to meet the needs and interests of the students, and an elementary program which focused on active parental support and the services of a psychologist. Case studies of underachievers are presented as examples. (JDD)
