Betty is right that there are choices - but the choices are
always within a narrow band of context - and decided ahead by the
teacher.
Betty's question: However, how do you convince educators that it
is a worthwhile goal to pursue?
I don't think that 'one' _convinces_ 'anyone'. I think that one
constructs as much of a coercion-free context as one can, given the
system constraints that one works within. And then be available to other
educators who are interested in similar interactions with students.
