Constructing School Success
How can we bolster the academic success of low achieving students and provide a more egalitarian classroom setting? This book describes the process of 'untracking', an educational reform effort that has prepared students from low income, linguistic, and ethnic minority backgrounds for college. Untracking offers all students the same academically-demanding curriculum while varying the amount of institutional support they receive. Helpful instituti…

Success for All
This article presents the effects of variations of a schoolwide restructuring program, Success for All, on student reading achievement and other outcomes in elementary schools serving large numbers of disadvantaged students. Success for All uses research-based preschool and kindergarten programs, beginning and intermediate reading programs in Grades 1-3, one-to-one tutoring for low-achieving students, family support programs, and other elements. …
Kinship beyond the household in a nineteenth-century Italian town
L'étude empirique des liens de parenté au-delà du ménage pour l'Europe du passé reste vraiment sous-développée. Cette étude se concentre sur une population qui vécut à Casalecchio di Reno, près de Bologne en Italie, ville en voie d'industrialisation et habitée par des métayers. La nature et l'impact de leurs liens de parenté avec d'autres ménages et communautés sont étudiés pour les années 1865 à 1921. Les auteurs font des recherches sur le rappo…
Success for All
This article reports the first year's outcomes of Success for All, a program designed to bring all children to grade level in basic skills by the third grade. The program uses one-to-one tutoring, research-based reading methods, frequent assessment, enhanced preschool and kindergarten programs, family support, and other interventions to prevent learning problems from developing. An evaluation of the program in an inner-city elementary school foun…
Can Every Child Learn? An Evaluation of "Success for All" in an Urban Elementary School

Should We Lengthen the School Term
This article examines the merits of proposals to increase the length of the school term. In reviewing studies of school time and learning, the article points out that there is considerable variation in how existing time is used and that inconsistent effects for time are often found. The research evidence is therefore argued not to support increases in the school term as a means of increasing student achievement
Effects of Whole Class, Ability Grouped, and Individualized Instruction on Mathematics Achievement
Achievement and attitudinal effects of three mathematics instruction methods directed in varying degrees toward accommodating diversity in student performance levels were compared in two randomized field experiments. Treatments included an individualized model, Team Assisted Individualization (TAI); an ability grouped model, Ability Grouped Active Teaching (AGAT); a group-paced model, the Missouri Mathematics Program (MMP); and, in Experiment 2 o…
Mastery Learning and Student Teams
The mathematics achievement effects of principal components of mastery learning and student team learning were evaluated in a year-long randomized experiment in urban ninth grade general mathematics classes. The components were formative tests, corrective instruction for nonmasters, summative tests (Mastery), and practice in four-member heterogeneous teams and team rewards (Teams). A 2 X 2 (Mastery by Teams) factorial experiment compared Mastery,…
Voluntarism and Governance in Education
The fundamental characteristics of private and public education -voluntarism and government control-are described and related to authority, consensus and commitment in schools. The paper argues that private and public schools rely on different types of consensus and authority: value consensus and traditional authority in the private school, and political consensus and legal/rational authority in the public school. It points out the necessary conn…
Measurement and Modeling Choices in Studies of Time and Learning
The consequences of using alternative measures of time and achievement are examined in an observational study of 18 elementary school classes. Of the four measures of time used—scheduled time, actual instructional time, engaged time and engaged rate—the engagement measures produced the more consequential effects of time for learning. Nonetheless, measures of allocated time are still important because they provide the constraints within which the …

A Fortran Program for Simulating Educational Growth With Varying School Impact
To facilitate empirical investigations of longitudinal methodology, a computer procedure was developed to generate artificial data in which true growth scores are known. This procedure simulates the results of the Educational Testing Service Growth Study that pertain to the relationships among scores on a test of academic potential and scores on a test of educational attainment administered on four occasions. Similarly, the procedure simulates th…
