Thanks! Where on the web would be the best place to find these articles? This is a link to an NY Times article I read that highlighted some of the changes (part of) Chinese education is (trying) to implement... from other colleagues in China I've talked to, it sounds like it is the ideal.

My previous teacher training work has been using these kind of Ss-centered and experiential learning methods, and this article was very exciting to read and consider how this could apply to China... we'll see, and thanks!
