This volume provides the theory and research on which Elizabeth Cohen's Designing Groupwork , now a classic resource in curriculum, was based. Working for Equity in Heterogeneous Classrooms documents, with systematic data collection and analysis, how it is possible to abolish ability grouping without sacrificing the intellectual challenge of the curriculum. This unique illustration of the practical application of sociological theory and research strategies shows how they can be utilized in reconstructing classrooms to simultaneously achieve goals of equity and development of higher order thinking.

The work of this group of researchers is testimony to the exciting potential that sociological theory and research have for the field of education.
