5. A child whose cognitive abilities are markedly more advanced than his or her peers is considered intellectually gifted. Gifted children often learn faster than their peers and work independently. Schools face the challenge of how to handle gifted students academically in order to keep them challenged and engaged. Gifted programs can be beneficial by keeping gifted children engaged in learning, and providing them with opportunities to discover their potential. Gifted programs can be detrimental by labeling children as either "gifted" or "not gifted," which can in turn create a self-fulfilling prophecy where "not gifted" students do not put forth the same efforts and therefore are not as successful.
