Top Tweets for #ExcellenceGaps
Always a good experience interacting with @jlrgifted, the @GiftedStudies team, and Kentucky educators as we work together to promote academic excellence and close #excellencegaps!
The Center for Gifted Studies offers a day with superintendents and other decision-makers on advanced learning opportunities. @JonathanPlucker is conducting this special workshop. @wku @WKUSTE @WKUCEBS @NAGCGIFTED @KAGEgifted
This was a great session, I highly recommend the recording. It was the first time I've sat on a panel with a graduate of the @JHUeducation Ed Policy Program, Dr. Meredith Coffey! She & @redandexpert authored the report on which the session was based. #excellencegaps
WATCH: Race, class, and excellence gaps: How to bridge persistent divides in advanced education.
Featuring @laurameckler, @JonathanPlucker, @DrLouMoore, @arosesocol, and @MichaelPetrilli. https://t.co/kV6okj6Koh
Was happy to serve as advisor for this report on #excellencegaps, by Meredith Coffey (@JHUeducation Ed Policy alum!) & @redandexpert. It’s amazing how much we’ve learned about EGs over the past 12 years, and this report builds on that work in important ways. Highly recommended:
What can policymakers and practitioners do to boost achievement for all student groups while working to narrow excellence gaps? Read Excellence Gaps by Race and Socioeconomic Status to find out. https://t.co/arokBo5P4Y
@MichaelPetrilli @bwrighted This report should be the foundation for our efforts to create equitable advanced learning and close #excellencegaps. Thanks again to the Fordham Institute and Fordham Foundation for pushing this important work forward. 6/6
Special thanks to @MchenryMelanie (JHU postdoc now at @BaylorSOE) and @AshleySyy11 (JHU master's student now at @UNT_COE) for their great work on this project! We can close these #excellencegaps!
SOE Professor, @JonathanPlucker, collaborates on an analysis that informs new advances to equitable advances in #education.

KY & the @prichardcom have been at the forefront of addressing ed equity issues & #excellencegaps. Emerging data on these efforts is very positive despite the pandemic's impact. Further evidence we can address these issues successfully! @NAGCGIFTED

Further evidence that local norms help close #excellencegaps
You know those policies that some universities have that admit the top X% of each high school in the state?
They're really good for disadvantaged students.
They increase graduation rates and annual salaries of disadvantaged students *a lot*.

"While there is an inc push to eliminate #gifted programs. & #excellencegaps are increasing, we must stay optimistic. New state laws are being passed & we are chipping away at making a policy difference for #giftedminds." @JonathanPlucker #LACLIVE21 #gifteded
@KAGEgifted A10: This is a bit cynical, but whenever I hear that, I respond with a version of, "Except for all the low-income, Black, Latinx, Native American gifted students who we miss, right?" Pointing people to #excellencegaps helps dispel this myth. #KAGE2021
AC&E is a great partner for @NAGCGIFTED and provides me with space each issue to share the latest research and thinking on #excellencegaps. A big thank you to our partner in the pursuit of equity and excellence!
DAY 2 #BlackMindsMatter:Join us at 11ET for a discussion w @JonathanPlucker of @JHUeducation about #ExcellenceGaps & 3ET for our wkly “Innovations in Education” with @equityaviator @LynnJenningsPhD @jdm1906 @cpepres https://t.co/lw8pE96g0N
@MichaelPetrilli Good Q. It's complicated. For some, probably good. They can do their 1-2hrs of "school" in 1-2hrs vs. sitting in school all day. But others love being around like-minded peers, & we're hearing they aren't having good experiences. #excellencegaps likely to explode. So a mixed bag
We’re simply FAILING to DELIVER at high levels for African American students. As a result, failing to support/nurture their gifts and talents, and their potential - resulting not only in achievement gaps but also #ExcellenceGaps Yes, sound the trumpet! https://t.co/02HtE9Cy5t
"Gifted education puts in tension two equally compelling strands of American thought. On the one hand, Americans are egalitarian... On the other hand, Americans believe in individualism..." #gifted #GATE #gtchat #echat #edequality #excellencegaps #mustread #weekendread #education
"In a perverted version of fairness, we knowingly neglect the special gifts of some kids in the name of equality," argues @smarick: https://t.co/Y3YkdzQA57
@realScottPeters @shsatsunset @JasonAGrissom @NAGCGIFTED @SJFredericks @davis_joy The research on the impact of any enrichment approach on closing #excellencegaps & increasing student learning is pretty thin. We suspect it *probably* helps, but we can't point to a convincing body of studies on this point.
Specifically, I’m wondering whether the public is aware of the magnitude of #AchievementGaps and #ExcellenceGaps and how they have changed (or haven’t) over time. @JonathanPlucker
Check out my new article with @krambohernandez & @realScottPeters on how #excellencegaps change over time: https://t.co/6I088c4RaU
Grateful for our AARTs @MrsHerendeen, @grahamroadaap, @JackieKwon101, @cinderfella913, Mr.Roeseler, & Ms.Butler. Our summer book grp —>collaboratively led talk on closing #excellencegaps -Where are schools strong & how we ensure #continuousimprovement #leadership @fcpsaap
@MrsJYears may have left us as AART to lead computer science work in the STEAM office, came back to talk to us about that AND to help us center and practice mindfulness with a little tai chi before we started our #excellencegaps work for the afternoon @fcpsaap
To clarify, as my take was a little too hot: integration is important & I strongly believe in it as a core American value. But I feel equally strongly that it isn't an outcome, it's a mile marker on the journey to eliminating #excellencegaps.
