Preferred term

de facto tracking  

Definition

  • In theory, de facto tracking differentiates teaching and learning based on the academic level and prior performance of a student under a fair and meritocratic educational system. De facto tracking, at its best, provides curricula and opportunities to learn in ways that correspond with students' abilities. [Source: Sociology of Education: An A-to-Z Guide; De Facto Tracking]
