Discussion on classes of small classes Introduction Low proportion of students and faculty staff determines the maximum percentage of teachers and students as a selling point for parents seeking better education for children or for specific grade levels Frequently used by law to do. When ratios are used as a supporting argument, they are usually presented in such a way that they tend to favor the discussion example. When these statistics are used in schools, they usually represent an average and are very susceptible to the effects of operations and further discussion.
Glass, V. Gene and Mary Lee Smith. (1979). Meta analysis of class size and achievement survey. Early meta-analysis of class literature We found that small classes (less than 20 students) are related to improving academic performance. Between lower grades and low income students, the effect is the strongest. Tianken, C. And Achilles, C. (2006). Please make it a class size suitable for secondary occupation. AASA scholarship and practice magazine, 3.1, pp. 26-36. At the junior high school in New Jersey, reducing the class size decreased the failure rate from 3 to 6% to only 1%, but 40 to 60 students increased simultaneously, poor students increased 7% without additional expense Did. The increase in the test score was statistically significant and the magnitude of the effect was .80.
When the size of the small group class was small, the teacher reported that they carried out the implementation. The SSA teacher interviewed in 2007 was particularly active on the scale of that class. Eight out of ten SSA reported students with class size 13 or less. Two school teachers are willing to choose a small class, but the teachers of two schools with a class size of 15 to 20 students have problems with these big classes I do not believe there is. Teachers say that less people in the class can manage the engagement of students and meet the needs of individual students. The SPA teacher also has a positive attitude towards the scale of the class
Studies have shown that higher student results can be achieved in smaller classes. These grade levels usually occur when the number of classes is less than 20 people. The Tennessee project STAR (Student Achievement Rate) is a large and controlled study carried out by the Ministry of Education in the 1980s and shows the positive impact of small classes on the achievement of students in all areas I will. The results were published in the journal of the Board of Education in the United States and published in many journals, so the authors stated that children's education has improved significantly as the scale of the class decreases.
