 Roanoke County Public Schools - School Board   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)

Grouping shall never be used to create or support a system of discrimination on the basis of race or sex.
Grouping within a class for specific instructional objectives should be flexible and continuously changing, based on the immediate instructional needs of the students.

 Instance Grouping Guide - WoWWiki   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Many novice players believe that being in an instance group is the same as grinding mobs with four of their friends.
In groups, it's best to remember the words of Tyler Durden (Fight Club): "You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake." A lot of players get huffy and say "I'm going to play my character my own way." That's fine, but it has no bearing on the purpose of this guide.
Ask most good group players what they hate worst in other group members, and 99% of the time they'll say, "Tanks who think they're Rogues and Priests who think they're Mages." The truth is, DPS is the easiest role.

 How should we group to achieve excellence with equity
Even if secondary teachers divided their classes into smaller groups for instruction, thereby fitting the criteria for the "within-class" grouping arrangement, it is unlikely that they would modify the instruction for each of the small groups, doubling or tripling the number of preps they would have in a day.
When the same expectations are held for all members of the group, as occurs in achievement grouping or age-based grouping arrangements, and even in tracking, the differential expectations for the different groups are at least public and can be agreed upon in a partnership of teachers, parents, and children.
Achievement grouping into high, average, and low groups had a small overall effect on self-esteem, but effects tended to be slightly positive for low-achievement groups and slightly negative for high and average ones (Kulik and Kulik, 1982; Kulik, 1985).

This Act provides the statutory authority for agencies to manage and dispose of more than 24 million acres of land and facilities that were acquired over the years to support various Federal missions.
The Property Act was written over 50 years ago when the biggest challenge regarding Federal property was how to establish an orderly process for disposing of vast property holdings acquired to support the war effort, but no longer needed for that purpose.
The Act gave Federal agencies the first claim to property that was excess to other agencies' needs, then made such property available for below-market (including free) conveyances to state and local governments for various public purposes.

 Ability-Grouping Research Reviews: What Do They Say about Grouping and the Gifted?
Grouping while using the same materials and curriculum for all groups of students is not supported by any segment of the education profession.
He suggests that the labeling (by placement of a student into a low-medium-high group) may have some transitory impact on self-esteem but that impact may be quickly overshadowed by the effect of the comparison that the student makes between himself or herself and others each day in the classroom.
The thorniest issue concerning grouping and the gifted is whether the gifted are needed in the regular classroom to act as role models for other students and whether this "use" of gifted students is more important than their own educational needs.

 Student Assignment in Elementary and Secondary Schools & Title VI
Ability grouping is the assignment of students to classes or instructional groups based upon the students' level of ability or achievement.
To ensure that the ability grouping or tracking practices comply with Title VI, the criteria used by schools to assign students to ability groups or tracks must be nondiscriminatory.
If ability grouping or tracking results in classes with substantially disproportionate enrollments of students of one race or minority group, school districts must be able to demonstrate that there is a valid educational justification for their ability grouping or tracking practices.

Hastings declares ability grouping to be wrong as a "philosophic absolute" and declares its use to be "totally unacceptable."

 The Railways Archive :: Railways Act 1921
The so-called 'grouping' Act was enacted by the Government to stem the losses being made by a large portion of the 120 railway companies, move the railways away from internal competition, and retain some of the benefits which the country had derived from a government-controlled railway during the Great War.
This act created the 'big four' railway companies - Southern Railway (SR), Great Western Railway (GWR), London, Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS), and the London North Eastern Railway (LNER) - from the hundred-odd that had previously existed.
The Act also codified standard charging rates with the establishment of the Railway Rates Tribunal.
