Keeping this assertion and PACT's features in mind, we decided to review literature related to the development of "ambitious" pedagogy generally (e.g., Ball, 2000; Ball & Forzani, 2009; Lampert & Graziani, 2009; Windschitl, Thompson, & Braaten, 2011) and culturally responsive pedagogy specifically (e.g., Au, 2001; Gay, 2002; Hollins, 2008; Ladson-Billings, 1995, 2005; Nieto, 1992), and then to focus on and explicate a foundational element of responsive teaching, which we call "contextualizing practice."

Big Winners (all works 2005) for example, in which a ramp supported by a wooden lattice extends from near a wall toward the center of the bare floor, struggles to rise above the status of a craft project, perhaps because it contains too many contextualizing visual clues for an illusion of scalar indeterminacy to be sustained.

Moreover, contextualizing activities themselves are a rich source of creative reading and writing assignments, and they are especially useful for linking offline and online learning.
