[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] All of this seems extraordinary to me, particularly as at no point has anyone been measuring their capacity to learn or interest level, but rather what they were taught in the classroom. [/quote] PP - just to clarify, this was not intended to be a dig at the teachers (which, in re-reading, it is absolutely written that way). I meant more that the classroom instruction and performance seemed at least in part influenced by behavior in the rest of the classroom, interest level of their peers in the small group math activities, etc. I have to imagine that it's very hard to control for those things across classrooms, so setting the thresholds based on acquired knowledge, and not also having a way to consider ability, seems like a disservice to the students.[/quote]
