Coleman, Laurence J.

Gifted Child Quarterly, v45 n3 p164-73 Sum 2001

A study investigated the experience of being a gifted student at a public residential high school by using ethnographic and phenomenological inquiry. The social system that emerged, one that the students judged as atypical, is described. Contextual factors are presented in an effort to understand the students' experience. (Contains references.)
