[quote=Anonymous]"Amother way of thinking about what the poster is saying - strategic implementation of a system designed to reduce the performance gap by bringing the tail ends of the performance distribution to the middle. Eliminating student advancement for the ready and able and forcing all to receive the same instruction within the same class acheives this goal by bring up the back while retarding the front." this seems to sum things up well. I think that this is the natural consequence of lumping all the kids into a class together so that it becomes much harder to target the more advanced kids since you have so little time for that and the greatest onus is put on bringing the others up to passing.
