Ability Grouping in Zimbabwe Secondary Schools: A Qualitative Analysis of Perceptions of Learners in Low Ability Classes.
Chisaka, Bornface Chenjerai
Evaluation & Research in Education, v16 n1 p19-33 2002
Studied the perceptions of the practice of ability grouping of students in low-ability classes in two secondary schools in Zimbabwe, interviewing five students in each of two classes. Results show that ability grouping had a negative effect on the instruction and learning of learners in low-ability classes and on the social relationships of these students and those in high-ability classes.
