Check out James Paul Gee's recent blogpost:  URL.  Well worth a read.

Gee "advocates what he calls “post-progressive pedagogy” and a particular variety of it I he calls “situated learning”."   Then, Gee provides 12 characteristics of what he describes as well designed learning environments.

Awesome stuff - to see what it LOOKS LIKE, go to the Inquiry and Technology Exemplars found on Galileo Website:  http://www.galileo.org/tips/inquiry.html
