-- Kenneth S. Goodman, Professor, Language, Reading & Culture I think the key word in Mike's comment on internalization is transaction. I cannot concieve of view of internalization that could involve making something which is social personal without a transaction taking place between personal invention and social convention. Using Dewey's use of transaction in the process both the social construction and the personal are changed in the process. What is internalized then is the result of a dialectic process- the the social construction itself but a transformed personal version. Ken Goodman
