Because it's trying to draw conclusions by comparing one anecdote to another anecdote. The scaffolded review assignment shown in the article is one data point. This person's kid's class is another data point. Two data points, in two completely different contexts, amongst the millions of assignments being completed in thousands of classrooms throughout the city. It's an incredibly misleading and useless way to try to understand an issue as complex and nuanced as education.
