Demski, Jennifer – Campus Technology, 2011
The "sage on a stage" is looking increasingly like a potted plant.

Kelly, Frank S. – Journal of Applied Research on Children, 2013
The paper explores important issues in today's education, not by analyses and statistics, but by projecting readers into the future and then asking them to look back on today's schools and to act like archaeologists--to surmise from all sorts of things they can observe, what was really important to us, what we really valued, how we treated kids,…
