Back to Binet: The Case against the Use of IQ Tests in the Schools.
Hilliard, Asa G., III
Diagnostique, v14 n2 p125-35 Win 1989
This paper discusses applications of intelligence tests in schools, considering Binet's original warnings that his tests were primarily useful for identifying students needing intervention and inappropriate for classifying normal students. American applications of Binet's work for ranking are seen as stages of shifting from remedial to custodial paradigms in education. (PB)
