Quoting the article:
«Perhaps it will turn out, for instance, that most high school dropouts began to
struggle with math at age 8. If so, all future 8-year-olds fitting that pattern
could be identified and given extra help.»
The most likely outcome of that scenario, is that the 8 year old is treated as a
drop out from age 8, rather than age 14 of 15.
There are hundreds of studies showing that children learn, and live up to
expectations of the teacher. There are almost as many studies showing that the
expectations of the teacher are not based on objective data, but rather on
subjective non-existent "facts".
IOW, if you want to raise the educational level of a school, con the teachers
into thinking that they are teaching students with an IQ of 150, or higher, and
that the student comes from a family with a high socio-economic background.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
