I need a qualitative research approach for gifted students related to talented students. The main question is: are the gifted students usually talented? More or less 600 words. After that a simple case study exemple applying the result of the research for some gifted student and the accommodations.
Such a paper, by the nature of the detail and elaboration included, would be at least 3 pages (single spaced, 12-point font, 1 in margins, not including title page or reference page). At least 6 references total. No WIKI or encyclopedia. Please note: Different references means different sources, which may or may not be from different authors but will be from different articles, books, etc. Direct quoting a source is not what I am looking for, it is better to paraphrase and integrate into what you are saying, which shows you understood the source and how it relates to the point you are trying to make. I will send the link in the conversation section for the book reading.

Tabatha is in the 4th month of 2nd grade at Watson Elementary school. She has always been an excellent student. In fact, she completes work in a timely manner and usually receives excellent grades, i.e., 95-100% accuracy. Recently, her teacher has noticed a change in Tabatha’s behavior and performance.
Tabatha has been raising her hand and asking for the teacher’s help multiple times during seat work in each subject. She has been breaking in line to go to the cafeteria, physical education, and recess, but only when the teacher is leading the line. She has also been pushing the new little girl that transferred to the school two weeks ago.
Her teacher has reached out to you, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), for help. Mrs. Lake explains that she has tried everything to help Tabatha. She has let her walk with her to the cafeteria, physical education, and recess whenever Tabatha tries to break in line. She even moved Tabatha’s desk closer to hers so she could readily help Tabatha when she is doing seat work. She has also separated Tabatha from the new little girl by allowing Tabatha to sit next to her on the bench during recess. She doesn’t know what else to do.
Discussion:
Random numbers are used in a wide range of applications, data encryption and simulations are but
of a few applications. However, when generating a random sequence using an algorithm is known
as pseudo-random generation.
In this project, we intend to implement a pseudo-random number generator. Among the techniques
used for such an application are the linear feedback shift register (LFSR).
An LFSR is a shift register whose input bit is a linear function of its previous state. The most
commonly used linear function of single bits is the exclusive-or (XOR).
The initial value of the LFSR is called the seed, and because the operation of the register is
deterministic, the values produced by the register is completely determined by its current (or
previous) state (Figure 1). Likewise, because the register has a finite number of possible states, it
must eventually enter a repeating cycle. However, an LFSR with a well-chosen feedback
function can produce a sequence of bits that appears random and has a very long cycle.
Applications of LFSRs include generating pseudo-random numbers, pseudo-noise sequences, fast
digital counters, and whitening sequences. Both hardware and software implementations of LFSRs
are common.
Figure 1: Example of an 8-bit LFSR
The goal of this project is to find all possible 8-bit structures, also known as polynomial
generators.
Program:
1. Write a function that given an LFSR generator, and a seed, should generate a sequence of
numbers. An animation is provided in [1], it helps understand how an LFSR works. The
sequence of numbers (255) should be saved in external memory starting at address 200H.
Call this function GENERATE.
To implement the function, GENERATE, you need to know that the main use of the XOR
gates it to check the parity; if the number of ones is ODD, a XOR gate produces the value
1 and if the number of ones is even it produces the value 0. You also need to know that the
XOR operator is associative and commutative.
2. Write a function that given the starting address of the generated data (i.e. 200H), should
check that whether any of the values is repeated in the sequence, if it is the case it should
return the value 1 in Register R1 and 0 if there is any repetition in register R1. Call this
function CHECK.
To implement the function CHECK, you may need to first sort the numbers in memory and
check that they are in ascending order without repetitions.
3. The main function should read the LFSR structure from port 0, and the seed from port 1.
The 2 values are sent to the function in part 1(GENERATE). The latter produces the list of
random numbers.
The code should then call the function in part 2 (CHECK), and if there are no repetitions,
the value of the LFSR structure should be in saved in external memory starting at address
400H.
4. Finally, a function should display the values of the valid LFSR structures on Port 3, with a
delay of 1 second between each value and the next one.
