[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is the article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/why-i-reject-the-american-obsession-with-achievement-gaps/2016/06/12/4831d636-2dff-11e6-9b37-42985f6a265c_story.html[/quote] Thanks for the link. At least I hope it'll lead to some constructive discussion on why it's not useful to put such intense focus on 'closing the gap'. Many teachers I talk to know that this is not something that can be fixed by the schools, and yet the teachers get blamed when certain students don't perform well on tests. It's not just about the schools, and it's useless to pretend it is. [/quote]
