[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A Brown Center report released this month found that grouping children by ability — a practice that fell out of favor in the 1980s — is on the rise again, and that tracking persists in some guises. [b]A 2013 report on a study conducted in Dallas schools found that teaching students in groups of like ability improved achievement for fast and slow learners alike[/b] — and who wouldn't want bright kids to be able to move ahead, or strugglers to get the help they need?[/quote] This is the paper: http://www.nber.org/papers/w18848 But I can only get the abstract for free. Unfortunately the abstract really doesn't say what they did.[/quote]
