[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]A child learns music through lessons and practice. A child learns to run faster through practice. A childs IQ is largely coded in their DNA. If a child is not academically gifted, no amount of practice or had work will make them so...in fact the children who are academically gifted often learn without practice or hard work.

It makes sense to congratulate someone on something that they worked for or achieved. It doesn't make sense to congratulate them on something that they are not able to influence themselves.[/quote]

This poster needs to go back to elementary school and learn biology and genetics.  Your physical, musical, creative, intellectual, artistic ability is all coded in  DNA.  DNA does not discriminate with regards capacity or ability.  DNA is also [b]influenced by environment [/b](epigenetics) which explains why you can improve by training ALL performance (musical, physical, creative, intellectual and IQ).

DCUMMIES need to go back to BIO 101.  Or read the scientific peer-reviewed literature instead of their Bibles.  The Bibles are flat out wrong.

Yes, of course environment has an influence, but the level of ability one is born with varies from individual to individual. Some are born with more of any particular ability than others. You can improve by training, but the amount of improvement is affected by the level of ability starts out with. Two people who work equally hard will not get to the same point if their levels of initial ability are appreciably different.
Children born with a higher level of intellectual ability need a different classroom environment than those with average ability. AAP is meant to provide those children with the environment they need. AAP is not a reward to strive for, it is a program for children who will not have their learning needs met in the regular classroom. [/quote]
