The stability of educational achievement across school years

5 years 6 months ago #717 by Dorina Grossu
Through research and data analyses, the conclusions are that in order to have a system that shows "genetic stability, the educational achievement should provide additional motivation to identify children in need of
interventions as early as possible, as the problems are likely to remain
throughout the school years. GPS prediction, specifically, might in the
future provide a tool to identify children with educational problems
very early in life and aid in providing both individualized prevention
and individualized learning programs. We hope that with GPS, we can move
towards precision education, just as medicine is moving towards
precision medicine.
For example, GPS could be used to identify children at birth at genetic
risk for developing reading problems, thus enabling early intervention.
As preventive interventions have greater chances of succeeding early in
life, a great strength of GPS is that they can predict at birth just as
well as later in life, which enables early intervention, particularly
for those children who are likely to struggle the most."
