[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another way to look at the advantage of AAP: rather than accelerated learning, by eliminating the lower 75% of the class (or 85%), the teacher is able to manage the individual learning paces. When the teacher is focused on on ensuring the bottom 20%, they do not have the time for the top 20%. In AAP, the focus is more on projects, [b]which means the kids to more of the work themselves. [/b] With any child in the top 30%, that will work. They get it. Some might take it further...there is nothing slowing them down.[/quote] theoretically this is true if the parents don't do the work for them which is an endemic problem. So fricken obvious when you see some of the projects and writing samples. :roll:[/quote]
