Abstract

The development of integrated instruction organized around broadly defined occupations - or a combination of occupations, social problems, and other engaging topics - provides the opportunity to create heterogeneous forms of schooling that are "separate but equal." Such a principled heterogeneity represents a relatively egalitarian way to respond to diversity in all its forms, Mr. Grubb suggests.
