self learning by observation supported with open school education. attending classes is a waste thing for intelligent children.

Depending on the age of the child in question I reccomend either rosetta stone or Learnables. Rosetta stone is best for older children and teens. Learnables is great for elementary school students because there is no reading involved. It is all picture/audio based.\nwww.rosettastone.com\nwww.learnables.com

Not really - I think that America's children are just as smart as any other country's.  However, it seems to me that America does not emphasize education for children as much as other countries do; so therefore, the intelligence as the youth grows up in America is lacking and behind those of other countries.  THAT's the key right there - if we, the people of the USA, concentrated on our children's education as much as we pay attention to the sports, the welfare of 3rd world countries, the next big movie, the latest American Idol, etc., etc. then I would daresay that our education would match any of the world powers.  Intelligence really cannot be quantified as such.  Knowledge, however, can be!

I think people of all levels of intelligence respond here. "Intelligence" actually comes in many forms - it's really just a measure of how well you can learn something and not a property of only the kids who got the best grades in school.

By reading and teaching our youth to read we as a society become more intelligent - intelligence is respected-respected people lead by example and deed.

One thing I do know is that even the most intellent being will never run out of things to learn.  \nThe more intelligent a person the more they can access information and find specific information.  A person of not such an intelligent dispostion can still learn through YA :D

Develops the student's mind so that they are more intelligent, and sensible in their everyday life.  Education also helps them grow and mature into responsible people.

Well... I suppose you refer to education school wise vs. at home. I am not sure about how it's going in the States. Here in Spain, it's been turned into a disaster. The new trend is to have everyone move at the pace of the slowest person, so if average reading age is 5, and the slowest kid learns at 7, then everyone has to learn at 7. If you don't pass subjects, you don't have to repeat the whole year as it used to be...you just move on so that some other facts that you will never learn can be piled on you. I guess mental discipline is not in fashion, as it's considered discriminatory. I'm sorry to say this, but the new ways with education are a bunch of crap. \nIf you are asking about education at home (manners and so on), I think parents are generally afraid to punish their kids as if being a child gave them some semi-divine shine that can't be touched. I believe kids need discipline, routine and order to develop correctly: rules help them know what to expect and become nice, charming people. Kids are not charming just because they are kids...more of the opposite. Please train your kids to turn into reasonable decent, bearable people!

Monkeybiz is absolutely right about how properly designed inclusion programs cause minimal impact on the regular ed kids. I am also glad to hear how well her son is doing. Congrats!\n\nHere are the issues that must be addressed to create an effective inclusion program:\n\n1. The child with special needs must be non-disruptive in his/her behaviors with the regular ed students; one of the major supports I provide is bringing up self-esteem and confidence through clear and observable academic growth (self-esteem must be earned through success to have any lasting, long-term effect)...low self-esteem being the major cause of misbehavior in SLD students.\n2. The child with special needs must be motivated to learn.\n3. The child with special needs should have language arts skills within one year of expectation for regular ed students for language arts independent inclusion, and within three years of language arts expectation for regular ed students for other subjects. For example, I have 4th graders who see me for Language Arts remediation, who are now able to read at the late 2nd grade to early 3rd grade level, who do quite well in math, science, and social studies with the modification of written work length, peer and teacher support for reading assignments, and multi-sensory instruction in the regular ed classroom. Those who are below that in Language Arts also have me for Math, and we provide supervised inclusion through an educational assistant in science/social studies for those whose reading is early 1st grade/Primer.\n4. The student with special needs must have study and personal advocacy skills (e.g. using the dictionary, confidence in asking for help from the teacher and peers, using environmental resources such as assignment postings, posters, etc.).\n5. The student with special needs should have his/her time in regular ed and in special ed pull-out carefully balanced to best support his/her learning needs.\n6. The regular ed teacher must be open and flexible, get along well with the special ed teacher on a professional level (personal doesn't hurt either), and have the skills needed to modify curriculum and adjust instruction to meet the needs of ALL the students in class (rather than seeing the inclusion students as "belonging" to the special ed teacher).\n7. The special ed teacher must be versed both in the regular ed curriculum programs, AND in research-based curriculum and instruction appropriate for a variety of learning disabilities, speeds, and sensory issues. The special ed teacher must be able to work with almost everyone on the regular ed teaching staff with some effectiveness, even with the untrained and unmotivated ones (in other words, be open and cooperative with many people, and have a thick skin and tenacity for those who would rather not "deal with those kinds of kids").\n8. The special ed teacher should have a small enough case load that he/she can spend adequate and effective time with the student on his/her continued areas of need (state cutoffs for caseloads are much higher than reality for teacher effectiveness). With appropriate time in individualized instruction for remediation skills, study skills, and coping skills, the child has an excellent chance of success.\n9. The parents must have a strong sense of education as the key to the future of their child, and convey their value for education to their child.\n\nIf ANY of these components are missing, or even somewhat reduced, the student is at a high risk for failure. However, with adequate numbers of dedicated staff, it can work wonders!\n\n"Full inclusion," all-day inclusion, only works if the regular and special ed teachers are co-teaching the class as all-day partners who have similar instructional styles and get along together personally, there is an educational assistant providing additional support, the administration is flexible for both curriculum and instruction of regular ed students, and both teachers h

Since all Universities in the world had different ways of teaching its student, there isn't actually the "best." It's just depend on your opinion. My opinion is that in the US, the best one is either Harvard University or John Hopkins University. In UK, I think its Cambridge University and Oxford University. All of the schools that I mentioned offers international students some form of financial aid. Contact them for more info.

If you are looking for a complete curriculum, I have heard a lot of people like Abeka - a Christian programs that covers all the basic subjects, I think (though I have never used it myself).  I would highly recommend the book "A Thomas Jefferson Education," by Oliver DeMille.  You can guy it a gwc.edu in the bookstore section.  Check out hslda.org for info on home school groups in your state and info on home schooling in general.  One more piece of advice, don't get too much into the "school" mentality (my child has to do this, this and this at this, etc.).  Be flexible - that is one of the beauties on home schooling.  If your child doesn't like the curriculum you have, find something different - there are TONS of options out there.  Good luck!

No -- a gifted child might have exceptional intellect, but they still need to socialize and interact with kids of all developmental stages.  Just because a kid is smart doesn't mean they should only play with other super smart kids.  Plus, any sort of segregation really never benefits anyone.

If you don't trust the education system, just don't send your kids there... you don't need to cripple/alter the bad system. Let it extinct itself....
