Back-to-school fervor has already started, believe it or not. (Full disclosure, two of us in the C-Suite teach Summer classes so we never really left school.) Even so, we are among the many educators thinking about how to retool and revamp our curricular materials for the coming year. Some questions are perennial: What activities worked or didn’t work?
