Gentry, Marcia; Rizza, Mary G.; Gable, Robert K.
Gifted Child Quarterly, v45 n2 p115-29 Spr 2001
A study examined differences in attitudes toward classroom activities among rural (n=115), urban (n=389), and suburban (n=702) gifted students. Rural elementary students found classrooms less frequently interesting and challenging, but more frequently enjoyable than their peers. Rural middle school students reported less challenge and less enjoyment than their suburban peers. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
