[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a misunderstanding among nonSTEM educators and parents that acceleration in and of itself equals challenge. The problem in APS is that they aren’t challenging the smart kids in math through depth and instead are just pushing them up/through material more quickly. They could go more slowly with harder problems. [/quote] What’s the difference between challenging students with depth and challenging them with breadth? Either way the class is harder. I do think that depth is better but a challenge is a challenge. [/quote] If you push through too quickly they won't get a deep understanding of the material and have to continually "relearn" it in later years. [/quote]
