Tracking is when you keep the students in certain groups to manage their learning styles. For example; the kids who need extra help are in one group, while the kids who improving are in one group. The good thing about tracking, is the fact that it helps manages different skills levels and makes it easier to teach students. The bad thing about this, what if the kids who need extra help improve? It can cause an hindrance an causes more of a divide. Students need a chance to move up and not be confined. Tracking has its ups and downs, but it all comes down to work with the students more so than what works for teachers. How do we make teaching students more effective in all aspects?

Service Learning

Service Learning is hands on learning and different ways it can be achieved. It is about getting more involved in the community. Service learning is used to understand the community and ways to improve it. Bridging the gap of distant communities and families. For example, students went to help the homeless, by reading to kids and distributing survival kits. Having hands on activities that interact with the word around is is good to make students more aware of what is going on in today's world.http://character.org/key-topics/service-learning/
