Shahaab, or Identification and Orientation of Superior Aptitudes, Project’s one-year trial required an assessment of its successes and failures through an opinion survey of a group of teachers, administrators, and experts. Respondents answered open questions both orally and in writing on different aspects of the project. The summarized and categorized responses indicate that the necessary conditions for the successful implementation of the project have not been present during the first year of the implementation. The methods and objectives of the project do not seem to be compatible with the existing economic and cultural contexts. The heavily centralized system of education emphasizing the implementation of predetermined programs do not fit the framework of the Shahaab Project. The respondents are not convinced enough of the practicality of the project and hence, have not committed themselves to its goals and objectives, leading to negative outcomes.
