Dr. Pope's org Challenge Success notes,» [S] everal studies have shown that when students have
some choice over assignments, such as which topics to write about or which problems to do, they are more likely to be engaged in the work and complete it... If homework is going to be assigned, it should be developmentally appropriate, meaningful, and engaging for the students.»
In other words, compared with districts that still practice zip code
assignment of students to schools, are districts with public school
choice systems more or less likely to have schools that
over represent black students and under represent white students (or vice-versa) relative to the surrounding neighborhoods?
