[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't mind the intent or spirit, which to me seems to be looking for a different/better way to deal with an intractable problem - achievement gap - that has many causes. (I don't believe that public schools can overcome those causes, at least not without a massive infusion of resources, but because kids are supposed to go to school, schools are forced to at least try.) But the article notes that a mixed-level class works for all students with well-trained teachers who use a "targeted approach to each child's level of achievement." The likelihood of that will be the case of high-performing students is, in my view, very low.[/quote] in europe this mixed class BS only worked if the class sizes were small and/or there were two full-time teachers in the classroom. HS would be 10-12 person discussions, for science, math, literature. Similar to a LAC. guess this is the soup du jour for 10 years and then back to the drawing board. [/quote]
