Dear Elina--

I'd recommend you contacting John Falk falk@ilinet.org and Lynn Deirking ,
dierking@ilinet.org from the Learning Innovation Institute. They have
developed an interesting concept of "free choice learning environment". You
can find their books on this issue.

I hope it will help.

Take care,

Eugene
