ASCD introduces us to "two articles in the Summer 2008 online Educational Leadership issue on thinking skills, 'Differentiating Math Through Expeditions' and 'Immersed in Inquiry,' describe how the authors set up conditions in which students designed their own learning tasks and set their own bar and their own pace." They're good case studies, though I think the student work still occurs within a very constrained circumstance. Nonetheless, they offer anecdotes, at least, of success.
