Thank you! It says that it came around in the mid 90s, which would have been when I was in elementary school, but I've never heard of the term despite fitting in the group. I wonder if it was related to a certain set of schools/philosophies.
I learned the term because I was homeschooling and active in the oldest online gifted community. I kind of was rubbing elbows with some of the luminaries in gifted education circles. So I was kind of in on the ground floor.
I believe public schools were much slower to adopt such concepts.
That makes a lot of sense! Thank you. Do you know if it is (yet/still?) in use in public school systems in the US?
No clue. My youngest is 29 and I have no grandchildren, so I have no current involvement with the school system.
Yes, I heard 2E being recently mentioned in a public elementary school. So, it seems it's still in use.
