The Desperate Dilemma of Bing Masters and His Three-Ring Combination Class: A Case Study.
Hartzog, Karla M.
Social Education, v57 n2 p61-62 Feb 1993
Describes problems associated with teaching a multigraded social studies class. Relates an apocryphal story about how one teacher used innovative practices in a multigraded class but aroused administrative ire. Questions whether scores on achievement tests are more important than critical-thinking and decision-making skills. (CFR)
