[quote=Anonymous]The PP who posted this article presented it as evidence that tracking is wrong-headed when what the author does is make the case that wrong-headed acceleration is harmful to students. Accelerating too much, or for the wrong children, is obviously as harmful as not accelerating appropriately for the right children. Tracking, done thoughtfully, helps all learners, a lot, helping explain why it's back in fashion in elementary and middle schools all over the country. Teachers like it, parents like it, kids like it. Only DCPS, DCPC and a few holdout states and counties don't like it. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/answer-sheet/wp/2013/06/11/teachers-why-so-many-kids-are-flunking-final-exams-in-montgomery-county/[/quote][/quote]
