“The result is that children from advantaged families can be expected to utilize such interventions more frequently and, as a result, advantaged families benefit more from them, thereby widening any preexisting gaps” (154).
“Specifically, disadvantaged students use computers for isolated skill development and remediation, whereas students of higher SES use computers for more independent and creative projects” (155).

“AP offerings were never intended to narrow the gap between advantaged and disadvantaged students” (155).
"Because of the self-selection process involved in deciding to take AP courses, this intervention was primarily utilized by the highest per- forming groups of achievers” (155).

“...the enhancement of higher performing students could have a positive impact on everyone, as national economic growth stemming from their success could trickle down and provide much-needed economic resources for their lower performing counterparts. Thus, making interventions available to all students may be expected to elevate more of a nation’s top students into the level considered critical for that nation’s future economic success—despite the possibility that any gaps existing between that nation’s haves and have-nots may be widened as a result of universalizing the intervention” (157).
“In an ideal world, most people would wish for interventions of these kinds to be universally available to all who could benefit from them” (159).
