    Michelle, Thanks for posting this! Honestly, one of the best, most "focused" articles I have read in a long time. It really nails the issue of having little or no focus or direction when we're swamped by layers upon layers of standards, initiatives, and skills. Makes me wonder if it might not be a good idea to choose one or two of the NETS-S as a starting point, rather than be daunted by trying to integrate ALL of them.

Apple - ACOT2 - 0 views

  • The ACOT2 strategy is to offer a simple approach that focuses on the essential design principles for the 21st century high school-rather than a more prescriptive school reform model. While the design principles themselves are not new, what is new is that the complexity that characterizes most education reform models has been cleared away, enabling immediate action and results.
