[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This Freakonomics episode from a few years ago seems to be suggesting the same changes VA is pursuing. https://freakonomics.com/podcast/math-curriculum/ In theory, I like the idea of more data analysis, statistics being introduced but totally disagree with "detracking." All students are helped by having instruction at their pace. [/quote] If you have small classes, starting in lower ES you can “track” in class. I’m theory you’ll have less of a gap, if you start early. [/quote] Arlington just switches classes. They still have tracking without an AAP center. That's how smaller school districts do it. They don't expect the teacher to teach multiple levels.[/quote]
