Teachers' Views of Combination Classes.
Mason, Dewayne A.; Burns, Robert B.
Journal of Educational Research, v89 n1 p36-45 Sep-Oct 1995
This study examined elementary and secondary teachers' views about combination classes. Interviews indicated that most teachers preferred not to teach them and believed that such an approach was limited by organizational constraints. Results are interpreted as a consequence of the lack of understanding of developmental theories underpinning multiage programs. (SM)
