“I wish our school used academic tracking,” sighs
Professor Seemy. “Kids are so different! Gerard hates
math. Keisha has the aptitude for calculus. Separate
tracks would make things easier for everyone!”
“Our school has a good reason for its no-tracking
policy,” says Professor Kahn. “Tracking involves
labeling some students ‘good’ and others ‘not-sogood.’ Labels are dangerous! When teachers expect
not-so-good work, they don't push their students to
succeed."
“Can that be right?” Professor Seemy wonders. “Let’s
investigate!”
