The argument (whether or not it is convincing) is that having no tracking would pull up the lower achievers and that tracking basically is giving up on them. Both sides want the same thing, it's how they want to get there.
- tstrimple 5y agoMy daughter (10 years old) barely missed the cutoff for her advanced math classes this year. She's been helping "less gifted" students in class, and I would say is substantially better off than if she's been doing slightly more difficult math problems. This is forcing her to think about math in a different way in order to try to help other kids bridge their gaps. I wonder what schools would look like if this was the norm.
