Why are some gifted children willing to tackle new challenges
whereas others seen insecure or uninterested? Why do some gifted
students achieve while others become caught in a cycle of
underachievement? Are there strategies teachers and parents can
implement that promote an achievement-oriented attitude? "The
Underachieving Gifted Child: Recognizing, Understanding, and
Reversing Underachievement" answers these important questions.
Although there are many factors that contribute to achievement,
achievement-oriented students exhibit four key traits: (1) they
believe that they have the skills to perform well, (2) they expect
that they can succeed, (3) they believe what they are doing is
meaningful, and (4) they set realistic expectations and implement
strategies to successfully complete their goals. In this volume,
parents and teachers will learn specific strategies to improve
student achievement by improving students' attitudes in these four
important areas.
