I'm new to this group so forgive me if this is a commonly discussed =
issue.

I'm a teacher at a 6-12 private school in North Carolina. We are =
interested in starting a pilot program to investigate changing our =
curriculum to be less content-driven and more independent-project =
oriented. It probably will start out as a small program with 15 to 20 =
students within our population of 350 Upper School students. It will =
probably be for 11th and 12th grade. It may eventually expand into our =
whole Upper School or it may stay a small program.

We are just beginning to explore what others have done and are looking =
for contacts who have pioneered this approach to learning.=20

So I am looking for contacts that I can talk to and find out what =
schools have done. Thanks for any information.
