Outcomes of Grouping Students in Mainstreamed Middle School Classroom.
Swank, Paul R.; And Others
NASSP Bulletin, v73 n516 p62-66 Apr 1989
Although this study's results favored heterogeneous over homogeneous ability grouping in mainstreamed, middle school classrooms, each arrangement produced desirable and less desirable outcomes. Instructional success can probably be realized by using either approach, so long as off-task and other liabilities can be effectively counteracted. Includes two tables and eight references. (MLH)
