While doing research for this, I came across this article on Vail School District in Arizona titled 'Thinking Outside the Textbook'. In my opinion, in order to truly reach what we hope to achieve, this is the way we have to start thinking. This was an approach they attempted to have us do at South 6th and 7th grades when opening the middle school. While not all of the teachers were happy and took to it, I know that I did as well as many others. If implemented the right way, I feel this is the truest way to reach the 21st Century Best Practices we hope to achieve. [|http://www.learningandleading-digital.com/learning_leading/201108#pg12]

I also found this study by Robert B Kozma about international best practices. It is called 'Technology and Classroom Practices: An International Study'. []
