From the Paper:

"The study would be structured as a Non-Equivalent Groups Design (NEGD). Among the 20 elementary schools with a fifth grade, student characteristics and performance in the accessible classrooms would be reviewed to identify four classrooms with the greatest potential for equivalency. In relation to the four classrooms so identified, random procedures would be applied to assign two classrooms to control conditions and two classrooms to experimental conditions. This procedure, however, would not cause this design to be randomized, as individual students would not be assigned to control or experimental conditions on the basis of random selection."
