[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In person school also creates inequitable outcomes for blacks and hispanics. [/quote] Yes, so let's do something worse! [/quote] This is wrong. There is a large body of research on something called the summer setback or summer slide. That research shows: 1. The achievement gap exists prior to K. 2. The achievement gap narrows during the school year and widens during the summer. 3. The widening is partially explained by differentials in parental ability, willingness, etc. to provide stimulating summer enrichment activities. So it is no surprise that DL results in a setback for certain groups.[/quote]
