[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn't have tracking when I was a kid - and I think I'm old now :) I do think that tracking is harmful for children. They do this in Europe, and it keeps the upper class in the upper class and the lower class immigrants in the lower classes. [/quote] European immigrant here. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Classes in Europe are actually kept very heterogeneous on purposenand there is no tracking whatsoever until typically about the end of middle school. At that point, they start splitting the kids up into tracks that run from highly academic to highly vocational based on their school record. That avoids the problem of the kid spending 4 years in college and getting into massive debt to get a useless degree and end up taking a job that didn't require a college degree to begin with.[/quote]
