The idea
Tracking groups students by ability into honors, regular and remedial classes; it is intended to tailor instruction to students' levels.
In practice
Two students with similar scores placed in different tracks, one expected to excel and one not.
Where people slip
Critics cite inequality and self-fulfilling expectations, the concern unit seven raised with the Pygmalion effect; the course states both aims and criticisms.
