At the risk of misunderstanding ...
Jim says, "It is how we teach more than what we teach..."
Let's not forget that the goal is to help students to achieve at high
standards. So while it is definitely important to teach well, we shouldn't
put content in a secondary position.
One of the problems is that teachers are expected to do everything well
without having "well" clearly defined (by teachers? for teachers?) and
there's so little support for teachers to achieve high levels of teaching.
