Clark, thanks for sharing your paper. I don't understand how I confounded
things. I simply asked, "Where is the active learning?" By active learning,
I meant the curriculum that presents a cognitive challenge. As you say in
your paper:

"I will maintain that it is the cognitive challenge that distinguishes the
truly engaging activity and the truly effective learning."

I take my understanding of "active learning" form the following reference:
