The questioning, hypothesizing, experimenting, collaborating, and communicating that goes on in your classroom is the pedagocial approach that will move learning forward (or gain traction, as David Warlick said in his K12 Online Keynote last week).

I posted my own comment in the thread. Please consider this as your personal invitation to join us in the International Space Station project. Diane Diane Hammond Curriculum Consultant YES I Can!
