Graduate Student Research Papers

There have been many organizational plans, including the departmental, intended to improve the "self-contained classroom" so as to increase the child's intellectual development without hindering his personal-social development.

There is very little research evidence to support the claims for any elementary school plan, the self-contained classroom plan not excepted.
