Peer reviewedBetts, Julian R.; Shkolnik, Jamie L. – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 1999
Tested whether variations in class size caused teachers to alter their teaching methods. Examination of 2,170 mathematics classes suggests that, when class size is reduced, teachers do not spend time on new material, nor do they finish more of the assigned textbook. Instead, they shift time to more individual instruction. (SLD)
