 What does this look like in the classroom?

Walk into one of these classrooms and

you'll see teachers talking less and students
talking more. They'll be working in groups,
discussing and sharing ideas, challenging
each other, solving problems. In a word,
learning. Teachers will be questioning,
guiding, pushing students hard to think
clearly and communicate effectively.
