Curriculum Grouping Practice

Curriculum Grouping Practice groups policies and debates about sorting students into separate instructional groups by measured ability or prior achievement, separate from Curriculum Controversy, which concerns disputes over subject content and teaching method rather than student grouping. Belongs here: practices such as tracking and streaming and the research and policy debate over their effect on equity and achievement. Does not belong here: a dispute over teaching method itself, and a statute that mandates or restricts grouping as part of a broader civil rights or disability law, which is grouped under US Federal Legislation.
