Gifted Students With Learning Disabilities
Gifted students with learning disabilities (GLDs) refer to students with the potential for high achievement, although not necessarily the current performance of high achievement. This causes a large portion of giftedness to stem from the environment. The definition of "giftedness" is hard to define, and no specific learning disabilities are cited due to the wide range of needs different disabilities require. These students are traditionally under identified and underserved, due to commonly only being recognized for being gifted or having a learning disability.
