Peer reviewedLeonard, Sean T.; Blasik, Katherine; Dilgen, Anne; Till, Frank – ERS Spectrum, 2003
Examines the use of advanced placement programs (AP) in Broward County, Florida, as an intervention strategy to narrow the achievement gap among student groups. Found that AP coursework can be extended to a wider range of students than previously thought, including minority students. (Contains 16 references, 7 tables, and 4 figures.) (Author/MLF)
