Hildy Gottleib recently wrote an article “When "Best Practice" is Bad Practice” addressing three key reasons why this phrase and concept are so problematic:
(1) It teaches us to look for answers outside ourselves and our communities of practice
(2) Who says it\'s best and what is it best about?
(3) Often, these so-called "best" practices are actually terrible.
