Excerpt from Relation of Sectioning a Class to the Effectiveness of Instruction
The problem. The purpose of this educational experiment was to determine the relative effect upon the achievements in certain school subjects of three plans of sectioning a class. A class is defined as the total number of children assigned to a teacher for in struction even though they may be divided into two or more groups for instructional purposes. The three plans of sectioning a class considered in this investigation are: (1) teaching a class as a single unit; (2) dividing the class into two equal groups approximately equivalent with respect to general intelligence; (3) dividing the class into three equal groups approximately equivalent with respect to general intelligence. When a class is taught as one group, all of the pupils recite at the same time. Following the recitation there is a period for study. 'thus under this plan the work of the teacher al ternates between hearing classes and supervising the study of the pupils. When a class is taught as two sections, one group recites while the other group studies. In this case the teacher's time is almost wholly devoted to hearing classes. Any supervi sion of the study of the pupils is of necessity given incidentally and at irregular intervals when the teacher is fortunate enough to have a few minutes of leisure during a recitation period. When a class is divided into three sections, the conditions are much the same except that necessarily the length of the recitation periods is reduced. In general pupils of one section study during the recitation periods of the other two sections.
The specific problem of this investigation was to determine the relative effect of these three plans of sectioning a class upon the direct results of instruction in certain school subjects In other words this investigation sought to answer the question, Which is the best plan of sectioning a class?
