CLUSTER TOOLS
A list of techniques — however well described — is far from being an approach to teaching. For that to happen, the ingredients need to be mixed, made into recipes. When you combine your selected WalkThrus into clusters that address specific contexts and purposes, you are creating your own pedagogical recipes.
