Research Behind the Idea
![Page 10: KATIE DRAKE AND ANDREA CARDON WILLIAMS/LEDGER ELEMENTARY COPPERAS COVE ISD TAGT CONVENTION NOVEMBER 2012 Tech N’ Talk](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062803/56649f165503460f94c2c4a9/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Why do we need a program like this?
• Teachers are expected to collaborate to meet the unique needs of gifted kids
• Students should create independent projects leading to professional-level products
• Students need audiences outside the classroom and school
• We must address the arts, leadership, and creativity.
• Opportunities must be provided in voluntary environments outside the regular school day.
• State of-the-art technology to support appropriate services should be provided.
