Abstract	A study gathered quantitative and qualitative data on the cognitive and affective outcomes for gifted students (grades 3-6) in full- and part-time programs from three classrooms in each of two neighboring school districts, one urban and one rural. Results suggested that outcomes are affected by the goal structures of classrooms and that the instructional environment of a gifted classroom may be a more important variable than the amount of time students spend in a program. Differences in the full- and part-time classrooms operating in the two districts and their effects were examined. Qualitative analysis led to the proposition that cooperatively structured classrooms were more successful learning environments than competitive ones. Numerous examples and quotes drawn from the researcher's classroom observations are given. Illustrations provide floor plans, daily routines, and schedules of classroom activities for both the self-contained and pull-out classrooms in the two districts. (VW)
