Looking for article on class and education

Hi Everyone, In my undergrad at Mills College, I was assigned an article to read in my foundations of education class.

It was a comparison of the type of teaching that happens in poor/working class schools vs. middle class schools vs. “elite” schools. For instance, it compared rote learning with collaborative/creative problem solving with students being given the freedom to “create” knowledge.

I often reference the ideas in this article, but cannot seem to find it. Anyone know what I’m talking about? Know the author?

Thanks in advance!
