What is the difference between "No Child Left Behind ACT" & "No Child Left Behind ARTICLE?"

I have searched far and wide and can find no reference to
anything but the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). This is, of course, legislature that
was co-written by several politicians, including the late Senator Ted Kennedy, signed
into law under the "second" Bush Administration. It was meant to guarantee an equal and
superior education for all students.

It has supporters and
detractors: educators find it difficult to meet the standards all all children are not
"equal" under this act—some struggle, some don't care. And with all the testing done
year-round, it not only wears kids out, but a great deal of core content material in the
classroom is overlooked or rushed through. However, the underprivileged and urban school
settings may not be able to guarantee an equal education for all because of financial
issues, poor attendance, etc., and supporters look to the legislation to help those who
seem to fall through the cracks. The current administration is looking at improving the
program.

In terms of the "article," I can only suggest two
things. Is your professor referring to a group of printed articles somewhere?
Or...could it refer to the sections listed under the major
guidelines?

For example, one sources lists the major
concerns of the act: annual testing, academic progress, report cards, teacher
qualifications, reading first, and funding changes.

At the
government site that lists the full text of the act (link documented below), there is an
introductory segment with sections; the first major category
is

Title I: Improving the Academic Achievement of the
Disadvantaged.

• Under this heading there are five
  sections:


• Improving the Academic Achievement of the
  Disadvantaged,


• Statement of
  Purpose,


• Authorization of
  Appropriations,


• School Improvement,
  and


• State
  Administration.

Next: Part A—Improving Basic
Programs Operated by Local Educational Agencies, followed
by...

Subpart
1, which has twelve different sections, and it goes
on.

Perhaps the articles
refer to the sections and subsections of the NCLB Act?

I
hope this is of some help.
